When should I synchronize a variable ?
I think it will just be accessed by one thread; does this mean I don’t need to synchronize it?
synchronized(variableName){
}

If it will only be accessed by one thread, you don’t need to synchronize it.
You should synchronize in a multithread environment when you want to protect a variable from simultaneous update from multiple threads.
