The ThreadLocal
class in Java provides thread-local variables. Each thread accessing such a variable has its own, independently initialized copy of the variable. ThreadLocal
instances are typically private static fields in classes that wish to associate state with a thread.
This guide covers various methods available in the ThreadLocal
class. Each method is described in simple terms to help beginners understand how to use them. These methods allow threads to have their own isolated copies of variables, enhancing thread safety without needing synchronized blocks.
For more detailed information, please refer to the official Java SE Documentation.
