In this section we are going to describe yield() method with example in java thread.
yield() Method:
When you want to stop current thread and switch the CPU availability to another thread, call yield() method of Thread.
public static void yield() - This method pauses the
execution of current running thread and permits the other threads to execute.
Example :This example represents the functionality of yield() method.
public class ThreadYield implements Runnable {
Thread thread;
public ThreadYield(String name) {
thread = new Thread(this, name);
thread.start();
}
public void run() {
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName()
+ " is going to call yield() method...");
Thread.yield();
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + " is completed.");
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new ThreadYield("Thread 1");
new ThreadYield("Thread 2");
}
}
Output :
Thread 1 is going to call yield() method... Thread 2 is going to call yield() method... Thread 1 is completed. Thread 2 is completed.
