Why does the multi-threaded version of the program take longer to run?
Hello! I'm learning multithreading in Java. I solve a simple problem: there is an input stream, you need to duplicate it in 2 different output streams. My decision:
private static class Tee {
private BufferedReader reader;
private PrintWriter fWriter;
private PrintWriter sWriter;
boolean done;
String buffer;
int readCount;
int firstWriteCount;
int secondWriteCount;
public Tee(BufferedReader reader, PrintWriter fWriter, PrintWriter sWriter) {
this.reader = reader;
this.fWriter = fWriter;
this.sWriter = sWriter;
}
public void teeWhileInsideCo() throws InterruptedException {
Thread reader = new Thread(new LineReader());
Thread fWriter = new Thread(new LineWriter(this.fWriter, 0));
Thread sWriter = new Thread(new LineWriter(this.sWriter, 1));
reader.start();
fWriter.start();
sWriter.start();
reader.join();
fWriter.join();
sWriter.join();
}
private class LineReader implements Runnable {
@Override
public void run() {
String line;
while (true) {
try {
line = reader.readLine();
} catch (IOException e) {
line = null;
}
while (readCount != firstWriteCount || readCount != secondWriteCount) {
try {
Thread.sleep(1);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
if (line == null) {
done = true;
break;
}
buffer = line;
readCount++;
}
}
}
private class LineWriter implements Runnable {
private PrintWriter writer;
private int number;
public LineWriter(PrintWriter writer, int n) {
System.out.println(Tee.this);
this.writer = writer;
this.number = n;
}
@Override
public void run() {
while (true) {
while (!done && ((number == 0 ? firstWriteCount : secondWriteCount) == readCount)) {
try {
Thread.sleep(1);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
if (done) {
break;
}
writer.println(buffer);
if (number == 0) {
firstWriteCount++;
} else {
secondWriteCount++;
}
}
writer.flush();
}
}
}
