public class DepositWithdraw {
private int accountBalance = 0;

public int getAccountBalance() {
return accountBalance;
}

public void setAccountBalance(int accountBalance) {
this.accountBalance = accountBalance;
}
synchronized public void withDraw(int sum){
if(accountBalance < sum){
try {
System.out.println("inside withdrawal");
wait();
} catch (InterruptedException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(DepositWithdraw.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
}
else{
System.out.println("withdrawn");
setAccountBalance(accountBalance - sum);
notifyAll();
}




}
synchronized public void deposit(int sum){
setAccountBalance(accountBalance + sum);

notifyAll();
}

}






public class Withdraw implements Runnable{

String name;

public Withdraw(String name) {
this.name = name;
}


public void run(){
DepositWithdraw Dw = new DepositWithdraw();
for(int i=0;i<20;i++){
System.out.println("Initial Amount before withdrawal="+Dw.getAccountBalance());
Dw.withDraw(1);
System.out.println(" Amount after withdrawal="+Dw.getAccountBalance());

}
}
}





public class Deposit implements Runnable{
String name;

public Deposit(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public void run(){
DepositWithdraw dw = new DepositWithdraw();
for(int i=1;i<=20;i++){
System.out.println("Initial Amount before deposit="+dw.getAccountBalance());
dw.deposit(1);
System.out.println("Amount after Deposit="+dw.getAccountBalance());
}
}

}



public class Bank {
public static void main(String[] arg){
Withdraw withdraw = new Withdraw("Manchester");
Deposit deposit = new Deposit("United");
Thread t1 = new Thread(withdraw);

That's because there is nothing to withdraw. Your other thread is depositing to a completely different account.

This is *not* a thread synchronization issue. Your two threads are working with two different accounts (one created at line 53, the other at line 74). They are working independently of each other. There is nothing to synchronize.

Before you "fix" synchronization, you need to get them working on the same account first.
