Java use semaphore in the thread synchronization. It helps to control access to a shared resource that uses a counter variable. It is a thread synchronization construct used to send signals between threads to avoid missed signals or guard a critical section.Java also provides a Semaphore class that contains constructors and various methods to control access over the shared resource.

A Semaphore in Java controls access to a shared resource through a counter. It is a thread synchronization construct used to send signals between threads to avoid missed signals or guard a critical section. In this blog on Semaphores in Java, we will understand the concept in detail.

In Java, the synchronized keyword and lock lock are used to realize the concurrent access control of resources. At the same time, only one thread is allowed to enter the critical area to access resources (except read lock). The main purpose of this sub control is to solve the problem of data inconsistency caused by multiple threads concurrent with the same resource. In another scenario, multiple copies of a resource can be used simultaneously, such as multiple printers in the printer room and multiple pits in the toilet. In this case, Java provides another concurrent access control - concurrent access control of multiple copies of resources PostVer 0

In Java, we use semaphore in the thread synchronization. It is used to control access to a shared resource that uses a counter variable. Java provides a Semaphore class that contains constructors and various methods to control access over the shared resource.A Semaphore is used to limit the number of threads that want to access a shared resource. It sets the limit of the threads. A mechanism in which a thread is waiting on a semaphore can be signaled by other threads. PostVer 0

A Semaphore in Java is a<strong> </strong>Thread<strong> </strong>Synchronization<strong> </strong>construct that controls access to the shared resource with the help of counters. A semaphore also sends the signals between the threads so that the missed signals are not avoided. A semaphore is a kind of variable that manages the concurrent processes and synchronizes them.

Java provide <strong>Semaphore</strong> class in <em>java.util.concurrent</em> package that implements this mechanism, so you don’t have to implement your own semaphores.

There are two constructors in Semaphore class.
<ul>
<li>Semaphore(int num)</li>
<li>Semaphore(int num, boolean how)</li>
</ul>
Here, <em>num</em> specifies the initial permit count. Thus, it specifies the number of threads that can access a shared resource at any one time. If it is one, then only one thread can access the resource at any one time. By default, all waiting threads are granted a permit in an undefined order. By setting <em>how</em> to true, you can ensure that waiting threads are granted a permit in the order in which they requested access.

We can use a semaphore to lock access to a resource, each thread that wants to use that resource must first call <em>acquire( )</em> before accessing the resource to acquire the lock. When the thread is done with the resource, it must call <em>release( )</em> to release lock. PostVer 0

<ul>
<li>If semaphore count &gt; 0, the thread acquires a permit, decrementing the semaphore’s count.</li>
<li>Else, the thread is blocked until a permit can be acquired.</li>
<li>When thread no longer needs access to a shared resource, it releases the permit, incrementing the semaphore count.</li>
<li>If another thread is waiting for a permit, then that thread will acquire a permit at that time.</li>
</ul> PostVer 0
