Example

In the following code shows how to use CountDownLatch.toString() method.

/*  ww w .j  a v a 2s  .  co m*/

import java.util.concurrent.CountDownLatch;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
   
public class Main {
  public static void main(String args[]) {
    CountDownLatch cdl = new CountDownLatch(5);
    System.out.println(cdl.getCount());
    new MyThread(cdl);
   
    try {
      cdl.await(100,TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    } catch (InterruptedException exc) {
      System.out.println(exc);
    }
    System.out.println(cdl.toString());
  }
}
   
class MyThread implements Runnable {
  CountDownLatch latch;
   
  MyThread(CountDownLatch c) {
    latch = c;
    new Thread(this).start();
  }
   
  public void run() {
    for(int i = 0; i<5; i++) {
      System.out.println(i);
      latch.countDown(); // decrement count
    }
  }
}

The code above generates the following result.
