java解析threadlocal Java源码解析ThreadLocal及使用场景

This class provides thread-local variables. 
These variables differ from their normal counterparts in that each thread that accesses
 one (via its get or set method) 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 (e.g., a user ID or Transaction ID).
For example, the class below generates unique identifiers local to each thread.
 A thread's id is assigned the first time it invokes ThreadId.get() and 
remains unchanged on subsequent calls.
  import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicInteger;
  public class ThreadId {
    // Atomic integer containing the next thread ID to be assigned
    private static final AtomicInteger nextId = new AtomicInteger(0);
    // Thread local variable containing each thread's ID
    private static final ThreadLocal<Integer> threadId =
      new ThreadLocal<Integer>() {
        @Override protected Integer initialValue() {
          return nextId.getAndIncrement();
      }
    };
    // Returns the current thread's unique ID, assigning it if necessary
    public static int get() {
      return threadId.get();
    }
  }
Each thread holds an implicit reference to its copy of a thread-local 
variable as long as the thread is alive and the ThreadLocal instance is 
accessible; after a thread goes away, all of its copies of thread-local
 instances are subject to garbage collection (unless other references to 
these copies exist).
