Synchronizing Method

[Pradeep Swaminathan]

Hi,

I have two classes (ClassA.java and ClassB.java) accessing static method (getSeq()) of a third class (ClassC.java). How do I synchronize, so that only one instance accesses the method at a time. Synchronizing on the class name doesn�t work.

Thanks�

Mark the method synchronized:

public static synchronized void getSeq() ...

That's all you need to do.

It's the java.lang.Class object for the class that is used as the lock -- not the name of the class.
