Thread notify

I have a producer/consumer scenario with one producer and multiple consumer.

When the producer adds a message to the queue it notifies the consumer waiting for messages.

If there are no consumer waiting for messages, is the notify ignored?

Will calling notify() when no consumers are waiting cause problem.

I don't know how to really check it, but as long as I am running the program, its not causing any problem. I beleive that if there are no consumers waiting, then the notify() is simply ignored. Am i right?
