Does Java's Condition::await() support to have a predicate/function?-CodePudding

From java doc 1.8, seems Condition only has await(), await(long, TimeUnit), awaitNanos(), etc.

It doesn't have a function that looks like Condition.await(()->xxxxx) to wait until a condition is met. c 11 condition_variable supports to have cv.wait(mutex, predicate_function) so we can use a lambda function as a parameter to control when condition_variable should return from wait/await.

Does java support this?

CodePudding user response：

From the docs, the C condition_variable::wait overload is just checking the predicate when a notification comes through and is equivalent to

while (!stop_waiting()) {
    wait(lock);
}

So we can simply do the same thing in Java.

while (!someCondition()) {
    conditionVariable.await();
}
