.Static method in multi thread program

658018 Jun 10, 2010 10:15 PM

Dear Sir,

I'm using multi thread program so I want to know something of static methods how to use in multi threading

Example

public static int getSum (int a, int b){return a+b:}

When accessing this method at the same time by several thread How it is behavior ?

I'm meaning will it switch by another thread ?

and What is the simple this we need to think while using static method in multi threading program ?

Best regards
Kapila

The exact same rules for multithreading apply to both static and non-static methods--if the method accesses any shared variables that might be accessed by another thread, and if you need atomicity or need threads to see each others' updates of those variables, then you need to synchronize.

In your particular example, there are no shared variables, so it doesn't matter.
