Java Multithreading Concepts

1. Runnable Interface
In Java, the Runnable interface is used to define a task that can run on a thread.

To use it, implement the run() method. Example:

class MyTask implements Runnable {

public void run() {

[Link]("Task running using Runnable");

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Thread t = new Thread(new MyTask());

[Link]();

2. Extending Thread Class


Another method of creating threads is extending the Thread class and overriding its run()
method.

Example:

class MyThread extends Thread {

public void run() {

[Link]("Thread running using Thread class");

}
}

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

MyThread t = new MyThread();

[Link]();

3. Synchronization in Threads
Synchronization ensures that only one thread accesses shared resources at a time.

Example of synchronized method:

class Counter {

private int count = 0;

public synchronized void increment() {

count++;

public int getCount() { return count; }

4. Executor Framework
Executor Framework simplifies thread management.

Example using ExecutorService:

import [Link].*;

class MyTask implements Runnable {


public void run() {

[Link]("Task executed by executor");

public class Main {

public static void main(String[] args) {

ExecutorService executor = [Link](2);

[Link](new MyTask());

[Link]();
