Determining When a Thread Has Finished

 
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
    Thread thread = new MyThread();
    thread.start();

    if (thread.isAlive()) {
      System.out.println("Thread has not finished");
    } else {
      System.out.println("Finished");
    }
    long delayMillis = 5000; // 5 seconds
    thread.join(delayMillis);

    if (thread.isAlive()) {
      System.out.println("thread has not finished");
    } else {
      System.out.println("Finished");
    }
    thread.join();
  }
}

class MyThread extends Thread {
  boolean stop = false;

  public void run() {
    while (true) {
      if (stop) {
        return;
      }
    }
  }
}
