Class ThreadGroup

  +--java.lang.ThreadGroup

public class ThreadGroup
extends Object

A thread group represents a set of threads. In addition, a thread group can also include other thread groups. The thread groups form a tree in which every thread group except the initial thread group has a parent.

A thread is allowed to access information about its own thread group, but not to access information about its thread group's parent thread group or any other thread groups.

Since:: JDK1.0

Constructor Summary

ThreadGroup(String name)
          Constructs a new thread group.

ThreadGroup(ThreadGroup parent, String name)

int activeGroupCount()
          Returns an estimate of the number of active groups in this thread group.

void checkAccess()
          Determines if the currently running thread has permission to modify this thread group.

void destroy()
          Destroys this thread group and all of its subgroups.

Called by the Java Virtual Machine when a thread in this thread group stops because of an uncaught exception.

The uncaughtException method of ThreadGroup does the following:

If this thread group has a parent thread group, the uncaughtException method of that parent is called with the same two arguments.
Otherwise, this method determines if the Throwable argument is an instance of ThreadDeath. If so, nothing special is done. Otherwise, the Throwable's printStackTrace method is called to print a stack backtrace to the standard error stream.

Applications can override this method in subclasses of ThreadGroup to provide alternative handling of uncaught exceptions.

Parameters:: t - the thread that is about to exit.; e - the uncaught exception.
Since:: JDK1.0
See Also:: System.err, ThreadDeath, Throwable.printStackTrace(java.io.PrintStream)
