Hi all:
i want to implement two methods :asynchronousLoad() andsynchronousLoad(),but i don't understand asynchronous and synchronous clearly.
Q1:
when i implement them, whether i need to create thread on both of them, or i olny need create thread on one of them?
Q2: the keywordsynchronized need? if yes,how to use it?
thanks
MIle

Don't confuse synchronous with synchronise.
For your synchronous design you need not use a new thread if the application will be waiting for the method to complete. If you want the UI to function during the method then you might use a new thread but this is a different issue really.
For your asynchronous method you will need a new thread. If the method shares any resource which might be used by the main thread you may need to use synchronise somewhere but this is not necessarily required.
