Field

int	MIN_PRIORITY The minimum priority that a thread can have.
int	NORM_PRIORITY The default priority that is assigned to a thread.
int	MAX_PRIORITY The maximum priority that a thread can have.

Constructor

	Thread(Runnable target) Allocates a new Thread object.
	Thread(String name) Allocates a new Thread object.
	Thread() Allocates a new Thread object.
	Thread(Runnable target, AccessControlContext acc) Creates a new Thread that inherits the given AccessControlContext but thread-local variables are not inherited.
	Thread(ThreadGroup group, Runnable target) Allocates a new Thread object.
	Thread(ThreadGroup group, String name) Allocates a new Thread object.
	Thread(Runnable target, String name) Allocates a new Thread object.
	Thread(ThreadGroup group, Runnable target, String name) Allocates a new Thread object so that it has target as its run object, has the specified name as its name, and belongs to the thread group referred to by group .

Method

int	activeCount() Returns an estimate of the number of active threads in the current thread's java.lang.ThreadGroup thread group and its subgroups.
void	checkAccess() Determines if the currently running thread has permission to modify this thread.
Thread	currentThread() Returns a reference to the currently executing thread object.
void	dumpStack() Prints a stack trace of the current thread to the standard error stream.
int	enumerate(Thread tarray[]) Copies into the specified array every active thread in the current thread's thread group and its subgroups.
boolean	equals(Object obj) Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
Map	getAllStackTraces() Returns a map of stack traces for all live threads.
Class	getClass() Returns the runtime class of this Object .
ClassLoader	getContextClassLoader() Returns the context ClassLoader for this thread.
UncaughtExceptionHandler	getDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler() Returns the default handler invoked when a thread abruptly terminates due to an uncaught exception.
long	getId() Returns the identifier of this Thread.
String	getName() Returns this thread's name.
int	getPriority() Returns this thread's priority.
StackTraceElement[]	getStackTrace() Returns an array of stack trace elements representing the stack dump of this thread.
State	getState() Returns the state of this thread.
ThreadGroup	getThreadGroup() Returns the thread group to which this thread belongs.
UncaughtExceptionHandler	getUncaughtExceptionHandler() Returns the handler invoked when this thread abruptly terminates due to an uncaught exception.
int	hashCode() Returns a hash code value for the object.
boolean	holdsLock(Object obj) Returns true if and only if the current thread holds the monitor lock on the specified object.
void	interrupt() Interrupts this thread.
boolean	interrupted() Tests whether the current thread has been interrupted.
boolean	isAlive() Tests if this thread is alive.
boolean	isDaemon() Tests if this thread is a daemon thread.
boolean	isInterrupted() Tests whether this thread has been interrupted.
void	join() Waits for this thread to die.
void	join(long millis, int nanos) Waits at most millis milliseconds plus nanos nanoseconds for this thread to die.
void	join(final long millis) Waits at most millis milliseconds for this thread to die.
void	notify() Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
void	notifyAll() Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
void	resume() Resumes a suspended thread.
void	run() If this thread was constructed using a separate Runnable run object, then that Runnable object's run method is called; otherwise, this method does nothing and returns.
void	setContextClassLoader(ClassLoader cl) Sets the context ClassLoader for this Thread.
void	setDaemon(boolean on) Marks this thread as either a #isDaemon daemon thread or a user thread.
void	setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler(UncaughtExceptionHandler eh) Set the default handler invoked when a thread abruptly terminates due to an uncaught exception, and no other handler has been defined for that thread.
void	setName(String name) Changes the name of this thread to be equal to the argument name .
void	setPriority(int newPriority) Changes the priority of this thread.
void	setUncaughtExceptionHandler(UncaughtExceptionHandler eh) Set the handler invoked when this thread abruptly terminates due to an uncaught exception.
void	sleep(long millis) Causes the currently executing thread to sleep (temporarily cease execution) for the specified number of milliseconds, subject to the precision and accuracy of system timers and schedulers.
void	start() Causes this thread to begin execution; the Java Virtual Machine calls the run method of this thread.
void	stop() Forces the thread to stop executing.
void	suspend() Suspends this thread.
String	toString() Returns a string representation of this thread, including the thread's name, priority, and thread group.
void	wait(long timeoutMillis) Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
void	wait() Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.
void	yield() A hint to the scheduler that the current thread is willing to yield its current use of a processor.
