I'm trying to figure out the best way to have multiple threads working from the same list of strings. For example, say I have a list of words, and I want multiple threads to work on printing out each word on this list.
Here is what I came up with. The thread uses a while loop, and while the iterator has next, it prints out and removes it from the list.
import java.util.*;
public class ThreadsExample {
static Iterator it;
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<>();
list.add("comet");
list.add("planet");
list.add("moon");
list.add("star");
list.add("asteroid");
list.add("rocket");
list.add("spaceship");
list.add("solar");
list.add("quasar");
list.add("blackhole");
it = list.iterator();
//launch three threads
RunIt rit = new RunIt();
rit.runit();
rit.runit();
rit.runit();
}
}
class RunIt implements Runnable {
public void run()
{
while (ThreadsExample.it.hasNext()) {
//Print out and remove string from the list
System.out.println(ThreadsExample.it.next());
ThreadsExample.it.remove();
}
}
public void runit() {
Thread thread = new Thread(new RunIt());
thread.start();
}
}
This seems to work, although I get some Exception in thread "Thread-2" Exception in thread "Thread-0" java.lang.IllegalStateException errors at the end of the run.
Am I doing this correctly or is there a better way to have multiple threads working on the same pool of strings?
