public interface ThreadFactory
Thread#Thread(Runnable) new Thread
,
enabling applications to use special thread subclasses, priorities, etc.
The simplest implementation of this interface is just:
class SimpleThreadFactory implements ThreadFactory { public Thread newThread(Runnable r) { return new Thread(r); } }The Executors method provides a more useful simple implementation, that sets the created thread context to known values before returning it.
