Why is main not completing its execution??
What does Line1 signify?

Have you tried to run it because i'm getting a java.lang.IllegalMonitorStateException.
That's because the notify statement must be in synchronized code.

Read about interrupts here

Ok..that means the Thread refernced by t is never notified, so it will never terminate.

But a.interrupt() dosent make any difference right?

Main is terminating but the thread you have started that is not terminating.
As thread t has called wait on object of A means on a.

The program is terminated because an exception is thrown.
Try putting the notifyAll in a synchronized block.

Problem is here also Abhi, you have to synchronize on this also, to run it perfectly.


And than you have to modify main also.


a.interrupt(); will do nothing. As thread running is referenced by thread t. It is just a tricky part to confuse you.
