1.需要UncaughtExceptionHandler的理由

  • 主线程中可以很方便地发现异常,如打印堆栈信息,而子线程不能,代码示例如ExceptionInChildThread类所示。
  • 子线程无法用传统的try catch方式捕获异常,代码示例如CannotCatchDirectly类所示。
  • 不捕获异常的话,子线程抛出异常停止运行,破坏系统的健壮性。
/**
* 描述:研究单线程抛出时的处理情况
*/
public class ExceptionInChildThread implements Runnable {
@Override
public void run() {
throw new RuntimeException();
}

public static void main(String[] args) {
ExceptionInChildThread exceptionInChildThread = new ExceptionInChildThread();
Thread thread = new Thread(exceptionInChildThread);
thread .start();
for (int i = 1; i < 10; i++) {
System.out.println("正在打印" + i);
}
}
}

程序执行结果如下所示,可以看到堆栈信息被散乱输出到控制台,不是很便利。

/**
* 描述:证明线程的异常不能用传统方法捕获
* 1.不加try catch抛出4个异常,都带线程名字
* 2.加了try catch,期望捕获到第一个线程的异常,线程234不应该被捕获,期待打印出Caught Exception
* 3.执行时发现,根本没有Caught Exception,线程234依然运行并且抛出异常
*/
public class CannotCatchDirectly implements Runnable {
@Override
public void run() {
throw new RuntimeException();
}

public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
CannotCatchDirectly cannotCatchDirectly = new CannotCatchDirectly();
try {
Thread thread1 = new Thread(cannotCatchDirectly, "Thread1");
thread1.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
Thread thread2 = new Thread(cannotCatchDirectly, "Thread2");
thread2.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
Thread thread3 = new Thread(cannotCatchDirectly, "Thread3");
thread3.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
Thread thread4 = new Thread(cannotCatchDirectly, "Thread4");
thread4.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
} catch (RuntimeException exception) {
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName() + "抛出异常");
}
}
}

程序执行结果如下所示,当Thread1抛出异常时,应当进入catch分支,并终止程序运行。但实际上没有,程序继续运行,4个子线程分别抛出异常,这说明使用try catch没有捕获到子线程异常。

Exception in thread "Thread1" java.lang.RuntimeException
at com.leichuangkj.threads.CannotCatchDirectly.run(CannotCatchDirectly.java:6)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748)
Exception in thread "Thread2" java.lang.RuntimeException

2.UncaughtExceptionHandler源码分析

public class ThreadGroup implements Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler {
public void uncaughtException(Thread t, Throwable e) {
//默认情况下parent是null
if (parent != null) {
parent.uncaughtException(t, e);
} else {
//设置全局handler进行处理
Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler ueh = Thread.getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler();
if (ueh != null) {
ueh.uncaughtException(t, e);
} else if (!(e instanceof ThreadDeath)) {
//全局handler不存在则输出异常堆栈
System.err.print("Exception in thread \"" + t.getName() + "\" ");
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
}
}
}
}

3.全局异常处理器

/**
* 描述:自定义UncaughtExceptionHandler
*/
public class MyUncaughtExceptionHandler implements Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler {
private String name;

MyUncaughtExceptionHandler(String name){
this.name = name;
}

@Override
public void uncaughtException(Thread t, Throwable e) {
System.out.println(t.getName() + "捕获异常,异常信息" + e.toString());
}
}
/**
* 描述:使用自定义的UncaughtExceptionHandler
*/
class UseOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler implements Runnable {
@Override
public void run() {
throw new RuntimeException();
}

public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(new MyUncaughtExceptionHandler("捕获器"));
UseOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler useOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler = new UseOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler();
Thread thread1 = new Thread(useOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler, "Thread1");
thread1.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
Thread thread2 = new Thread(useOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler, "Thread2");
thread2.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
Thread thread3 = new Thread(useOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler, "Thread3");
thread3.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
Thread thread4 = new Thread(useOwnUncaughtExceptionHandler, "Thread4");
thread4.start();
Thread.sleep(1000);
}
}

程序执行结果如下所示,4个子线程抛出的异常都被捕获。

Thread1捕获异常,异常信息java.lang.RuntimeException
Thread2捕获异常,异常信息java.lang.RuntimeException
Thread3捕获异常,异常信息java.lang.RuntimeException
Thread4捕获异常,异常信息java.lang.RuntimeException
