The post explains the behavior of static synchronized methods in Java, demonstrating how two threads can interact when trying to execute such methods simultaneously. It illustrates that a static synchronized method locks the class object, preventing concurrent access, while a non-static synchronized method allows simultaneous execution when threads lock different objects.
This post discusses Java's synchronized blocks, which allow for more granular control over thread synchronization compared to synchronized methods. The synchronized block only controls access to a specific section of code, whereas synchronized methods lock the entire method. Benefits and drawbacks of each approach are summarized, emphasizing clarity and flexibility.
