I have a standard producer consumer problem. Producer puts data into the stack(buffer) consumers take it.
The problem is that consumers are not dying(not always) when the producer ends producing the data. 

I would like to make consumer die after producer ends his `for` loop 

```
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++){
        try{
    //      sleep((int)(Math.random() * 1));                
        }catch(Exception e){e.printStackTrace();}
        b.put((int) (Math.random()* 10));
        System.out.println("i = " + i);
    }
    b.stop();

```

so then I call `b.stop()` which changes `running` field in `Buffer` to false and `notifiesAll()`

End then I get:

```
i = 9 // number of iteration this is 10th iteration
Consumer 2.: no data to take. I wait.  Memory: 0
Consumer 1.: no data to take. I wait.  Memory: 0
Consumer 3.: no data to take. I wait.  Memory: 0

```

they should die then, so I made method stop() but it did not work.

Code is running please check it

```
import java.util.Stack;

public class Buffer {
private static int SIZE = 4;
private int i;//number of elements in buffer
public Stack<Integer> stack;
private volatile boolean running;
    public Buffer() {
        stack = new Stack<>();
        running = true;
        i = 0;
    }
    synchronized public void put(int val){
        while (i >= SIZE) {
            try {
                System.out.println("Buffer full, producer waits");
                wait();
            } catch (InterruptedException exc) {
                exc.printStackTrace();
            }
        }   
        stack.push(val);//txt = s;
        i++;
        System.out.println("Producer inserted " + val + " memory: " + i);
        if(i - 1 == 0)
            notifyAll();
        System.out.println(stack);
    }

    public synchronized Integer get(Consumer c) {
        while (i == 0) {
            try {
                System.out.println(c + ": no data to take. I wait.  Memory: " + i);
                wait();
            } catch (InterruptedException exc) {
                exc.printStackTrace();
            }
        }   
        if(running){
            int data = stack.pop();
            i--;    
            System.out.println(c+  ": I took: " + data +" memory: " +  i);
            System.out.println(stack);
            if(i + 1 == SIZE){//if the buffer was full so the producer is waiting
                notifyAll();
                System.out.println(c +  "I notified producer about it");
        }
        return data;}
        else 
            return null;
    }

    public boolean isEmpty(){
        return i == 0;
    }
    public synchronized void stop(){//I THOUGH THIS WOULD FIX IT~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
        running = false;
        notifyAll();
    }
    public boolean isRunning(){
        return running;
    }

}
