wait until all threads finish their work in java

Question

I\'m writing an application that has 5 threads that get some information from web simultaneously and fill 5 different fields in a buffer class.
I need to validate buffer

Answer 1

You can join to the threads. The join blocks until the thread completes.

for (Thread thread : threads) {
    thread.join();
}

Note that join throws an InterruptedException. You'll have to decide what to do if that happens (e.g. try to cancel the other threads to prevent unnecessary work being done).
