public interface ThreadFactory
new Thread
, enabling applications to use special thread subclasses, priorities, etc. The simplest implementation of this interface is just:
class SimpleThreadFactory implements ThreadFactory {
public Thread newThread(Runnable r) {
return new Thread(r);
}
}
The Executors.defaultThreadFactory()
method provides a more useful simple implementation, that sets the created thread context to known values before returning it.Thread newThread(Runnable r)
Thread
to run the given runnable.r
- a runnable to be executed by new thread instancenull
if the request to create a thread is rejected
