    Object lock allows synchronization on a specific object instance, where only one thread can access synchronized methods or blocks for that object at a time. Class lock allows synchronization on the class itself using static synchronized methods, where only one thread can access static synchronized methods at a time across all object instances. The key differences are that object lock is per-instance while class lock is at the class level, affecting all instances.

    Difference between object Lock and class Lock

    Object lock Class lock

    Thread can acquire object lock by- Thread can acquire lock on class’s class object
    1. Entering synchronized block or by-
    2. by entering synchronized methods. 1. Entering synchronized block or
    2. by entering static synchronized methods.

    Multiple threads may exist on same object but only one thread of that Multiple threads may exist on same or different objects of
    object can enter synchronized method at a time. class but only one thread can enter static synchronized
    method at a time.
    Threads on different object can enter same method at same time.

    Multiple objects of class may exist and every object has it’s own Multiple objects of class may exist but there is always
    lock. one class’s class object lock available.

    First let’s acquire object lock by entering synchronized block. First let’s acquire lock on class’s class object by entering
    synchronized block.
    Example- Let’s say there is one class MyClass and we have created it’s
    object and reference to that object is myClass. Now we can create Example- Let’s say there is one class MyClass. Now we
    synchronization block, and parameter passed with synchronization tells can create synchronization block, and parameter passed
    which object has to be synchronized. In below code, we have with synchronization tells which class has to be
    synchronized object reference by myClass. synchronized. In below code, we have synchronized
    MyClass myClass=new Myclass();
    MyClass
    synchronized (myClass) {
    } synchronized (MyClass.class) {
    As soon thread entered Synchronization block, thread acquired object }
    lock on object referenced by myClass (by acquiring object’s monitor.)
    Thread will leave lock when it exits synchronized block. As soon as thread entered Synchronization block, thread
    acquired MyClass’s class object. Thread will leave lock
    when it exits synchronized block.

    public synchronized void method1() { public static synchronized void method1() {}


    } As soon as thread entered static Synchronization
    method, thread acquired lock on class’s class object.
    As soon as thread entered Synchronization method, thread acquired Thread will leave lock when it exits synchronized method.
    object lock.
    Thread will leave lock when it exits synchronized method.
