Synopsis

                           c.notify( )
c.notifyAll( )

notify wakes up one of the threads waiting on c. The calling thread must hold L before it calls c .notify( ), and notify does not release L. The woken-up thread does not become ready until it can acquire L again. Therefore, the calling thread normally calls release after calling notify. notifyAll is like notify, but wakes up all waiting threads, not just one.
