Python 多线程 start()和run()方法的区别(三)

 

上一篇文章最后只是简单介绍了start()方法和run()方法,这篇文章再详细地看下start()和run()的区别。

 

在实例调用的函数中加入打印当前线程的名字,分别用start()方法和run()方法启动线程检查有什么区别:

start()方法:

import threading
import time

def worker():
    count = 1
    while True:
        if count >= 6:
            break
        time.sleep(1)
        count += 1
        print("thread name = {}".format(threading.current_thread().name))#当前线程名

t = threading.Thread(target=worker,name="MyThread")
t.start()

print("===end===")

运行结果:
===end===
thread name = MyThread #
thread name = MyThread
thread name = MyThread
thread name = MyThread
thread name = MyThread

  从上面例子中打印的线程名字来看,使用start()方法启动的线程名是我们定义线程对象时设置的name="MyThread"的值,如果没有设置name参数值,则会打印系统分配的Thread-1,Thread-2...这样的名称。

run()方法:

import threading
import time

def worker():
    count = 1
    while True:
        if count >= 6:
            break
        time.sleep(1)
        count += 1
        print("thread name = {}".format(threading.current_thread().name))

t = threading.Thread(target=worker,name="MyThread")
t.run()

print("===end===")

运行结果:
thread name = MainThread #
thread name = MainThread
thread name = MainThread
thread name = MainThread
thread name = MainThread
===end===

  上面例子中,使用的是用run()方法启动线程,它打印的线程名是MainThread,也就是主线程。

 

再看下多线程时的例子:

start():

import threading
import time

def worker():
    count = 1
    while True:
        if count >= 6:
            break
        time.sleep(1)
        count += 1
        print("thread name = {}, thread id = {}".format(threading.current_thread().name,threading.current_thread().ident))

t1 = threading.Thread(target=worker,name="t1")
t2 = threading.Thread(target=worker,name='t2')

t1.start()
t2.start()

print("===end===")

运行结果:
===end===
thread name = t1, thread id = 6032
thread name = t2, thread id = 880
thread name = t1, thread id = 6032
thread name = t2, thread id = 880
thread name = t2, thread id = 880
thread name = t1, thread id = 6032
thread name = t1, thread id = 6032
thread name = t2, thread id = 880
thread name = t2, thread id = 880
thread name = t1, thread id = 6032

  上面例子中,start()方法启动了两个新的子线程并交替运行,每个子进程ID也不同。

run():

import threading
import time

def worker():
    count = 1
    while True:
        if count >= 6:
            break
        time.sleep(1)
        count += 1
        print("thread name = {}, thread id = {}".format(threading.current_thread().name,threading.current_thread().ident))

t1 = threading.Thread(target=worker,name="t1")
t2 = threading.Thread(target=worker,name='t2')

t1.run()
t2.run()

print("===end===")

运行结果:
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
thread name = MainThread, thread id = 2000
===end===

  上面例子中,两个子线程都用run()方法启动,但却是先运行t1.run(),运行完之后才按顺序运行t2.run(),两个线程都工作在主线程,没有启动新线程,因此,run()方法仅仅是普通函数调用。

 

一个进程中至少有一个线程,并作为程序的入口,这个线程就是主线程。
一个进程至少有一个主线程,其它线程称为工作线程。

 

总结:

好了,从上面四个小例子,我们可以总结出:

  • start() 方法是启动一个子线程,线程名就是我们定义的name
  • run() 方法并不启动一个新线程,就是在主线程中调用了一个普通函数而已。

 

因此,如果你想启动多线程,就必须使用start()方法。
