Thread sleep and interrupt

 
public class SleepInterrupt extends Object implements Runnable {
  public void run() {
    try {
      System.out.println("in run() - sleep for 20 seconds");
      Thread.sleep(20000);
      System.out.println("in run() - woke up");
    } catch (InterruptedException x) {
      System.out.println("in run() - interrupted while sleeping");
      return;
    }
    System.out.println("in run() - leaving normally");
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    SleepInterrupt si = new SleepInterrupt();
    Thread t = new Thread(si);
    t.start();

    // Be sure that the new thread gets a chance to
    // run for a while.
    try {
      Thread.sleep(2000);
    } catch (InterruptedException x) {
    }

    System.out.println("in main() - interrupting other thread");
    t.interrupt();
    System.out.println("in main() - leaving");
