Java synchronized method lock on object, or method?
- by wuntee
If I have 2 synchronized methods in the same class, but each accessing different variables, can 2 threads access those 2 methods at the same time? Does the lock occur on the object, or does it get as specific as the variables inside the synchronized method?
Example:
class x{
private int a;
private int b;
public synchronized void addA(){
a++;
}
public synchronized void addB(){
b++;
}
}
Can 2 threads access the same instance of class x performing x.addA() and x.addB() at the same time?
