* Every thread has a priority. Threads with higher priority are
* executed in preference to threads with lower priority. Each thread
* may or may not also be marked as a daemon. When code running in
* some thread creates a new Thread object, the new
* thread has its priority initially set equal to the priority of the
* creating thread, and is a daemon thread if and only if the
* creating thread is a daemon.
*
* When a Java Virtual Machine starts up, there is usually a single
* non-daemon thread (which typically calls the method named
* main of some designated class). The Java Virtual
* Machine continues to execute threads until either of the following
* occurs:
*
exit method of class Runtime has been
* called and the security manager has permitted the exit operation
* to take place.
* run method or by
* throwing an exception that propagates beyond the run
* method.
*
* There are two ways to create a new thread of execution. One is to
* declare a class to be a subclass of Thread. This
* subclass should override the run method of class
* Thread. An instance of the subclass can then be
* allocated and started. For example, a thread that computes primes
* larger than a stated value could be written as follows:
*
* class PrimeThread extends Thread {
* long minPrime;
* PrimeThread(long minPrime) {
* this.minPrime = minPrime;
* }
*
* public void run() {
* // compute primes larger than minPrime
* . . .
* }
* }
* * The following code would then create a thread and start it running: *
** PrimeThread p = new PrimeThread(143); * p.start(); *
* The other way to create a thread is to declare a class that
* implements the Runnable interface. That class then
* implements the run method. An instance of the class can
* then be allocated, passed as an argument when creating
* Thread, and started. The same example in this other
* style looks like the following:
*
* class PrimeRun implements Runnable {
* long minPrime;
* PrimeRun(long minPrime) {
* this.minPrime = minPrime;
* }
*
* public void run() {
* // compute primes larger than minPrime
* . . .
* }
* }
* * The following code would then create a thread and start it running: *
** PrimeRun p = new PrimeRun(143); * new Thread(p).start(); *
* Every thread has a name for identification purposes. More than * one thread may have the same name. If a name is not specified when * a thread is created, a new name is generated for it. *
* Unless otherwise noted, passing a {@code null} argument to a constructor
* or method in this class will cause a {@link NullPointerException} to be
* thrown.

* This constructor is identical to {@link

* that it allows the thread stack size to be specified. The stack size
* is the approximate number of bytes of address space that the virtual
* machine is to allocate for this thread's stack. The effect of the
* {@code stackSize} parameter, if any, is highly platform dependent.
*
* On some platforms, specifying a higher value for the
* {@code stackSize} parameter may allow a thread to achieve greater
* recursion depth before throwing a {@link StackOverflowError}.
* Similarly, specifying a lower value may allow a greater number of
* threads to exist concurrently without throwing an {@link
* OutOfMemoryError} (or other internal error). The details of
* the relationship between the value of the stackSize parameter
* and the maximum recursion depth and concurrency level are
* platform-dependent. On some platforms, the value of the
* {@code stackSize} parameter may have no effect whatsoever.
*
* The virtual machine is free to treat the {@code stackSize}
* parameter as a suggestion. If the specified value is unreasonably low
* for the platform, the virtual machine may instead use some
* platform-specific minimum value; if the specified value is unreasonably
* high, the virtual machine may instead use some platform-specific
* maximum. Likewise, the virtual machine is free to round the specified
* value up or down as it sees fit (or to ignore it completely).
*
* Specifying a value of zero for the {@code stackSize} parameter will
* cause this constructor to behave exactly like the
* {@code Thread(ThreadGroup, Runnable, String)} constructor.
*
* Due to the platform-dependent nature of the behavior of this
* constructor, extreme care should be exercised in its use.
* The thread stack size necessary to perform a given computation will
* likely vary from one JRE implementation to another. In light of this
* variation, careful tuning of the stack size parameter may be required,
* and the tuning may need to be repeated for each JRE implementation on
* which an application is to run.
