A CyclicBarrier object can be in a special state denoted by the broken state. When there are various threads waiting in the await() method and one of them is interrupted, the one that is interrupted receives an InterruptedException exception, but other threads receive a BrokenBarrierException exception; CyclicBarrier is placed in the broken state.
The CyclicBarrier class provides the isBroken() method. It returns true if the object is in the broken state; otherwise, it returns false.
