 Introduction to Thread
 Creation of Thread
 Life cycle of Thread
 Stopping and Blocking a Thread
 Using Thread Methods

MULTITHREADING
• Multithreading in java is a process of
executing multiple processes simultaneously
• A program is divided into two or more
subprograms, which can be implemented at
the same time in parallel.
• Multiprocessing and multithreading, both
are used to achieve multitasking.
• Java Multithreading is mostly used in games,
animation etc.

CREATING THREAD
• Threads are implemented in the form of objects.
• The run() and start() are two inbuilt methods
which helps to thread implementation
• The run() method is the heart and soul of any
thread
– It makes up the entire body of a thread
• The run() method can be initiating with the help
of start() method.

CREATINGTHREAD Contd.
CREATING THREAD
1. By extending Thread class
2. By implementing Runnable
interface

CREATINGTHREAD
1. By Extending Thread class
class Multi extends Thread // Extending thread class
{
public void run() // run() method declared
{
System.out.println("thread is running...");
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
Multi t1=new Multi(); //object initiated
t1.start(); // run() method called through start()
}
}
Output: thread is running…

CREATING THREAD
2. By implementing Runnable interface
 Define a class that implements Runnable
interface.
 The Runnable interface has only one method,
run(), that is to be defined in the method with the
code to be executed by the thread.

CREATINGTHREAD
2. By implementing Runnable interface
class Multi3 implements Runnable // Implementing Runnable interface
{
public void run()
{
System.out.println("thread is running...");
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
Multi3 m1=new Multi3(); // object initiated for class
Thread t1 =new Thread(m1); // object initiated for thread
t1.start();
} }
Output: thread is running…

LIFE cycle of a thread
• During the life time of a thread, there are
many states it can enter.
• They include:
1. Newborn state
2. Runnable state
3. Running state
4. Blocked state
5. Dead state

Thread methods
• Thread is a class found in java.lang package.
Method Signature Description
String getName() Retrieves the name of running thread in the current
context in String format
void start()
This method will start a new thread of execution by
calling run() method of Thread/runnable object.
void run() This method is the entry point of the thread. Execution of
thread starts from this method.
void sleep(int sleeptime)
This method suspend the thread for mentioned time
duration in argument (sleeptime in ms)
void yield()
By invoking this method the current thread pause its
execution temporarily and allow other threads to
execute.
void join()
This method used to queue up a thread in execution.
Once called on thread, current thread will wait till calling
thread completes its execution
boolean isAlive() This method will check if thread is alive or dead

Stopping and blocking
Stopping a thread:
• To stop a thread from running further, we may do
so by calling its stop() method.
• This causes a thread to stop immediately and
move it to its dead state.
• It forces the thread to stop abruptly before its
completion
• It causes premature death.
• To stop a thread we use the following syntax:
thread.stop();

Stopping and blocking
Blocking a Thread:
• A thread can also be temporarily suspended or blocked from
entering into the runnable and subsequently running state,
1. sleep(t) // blocked for ‘t’ milliseconds
2. suspend() // blocked until resume() method is
invoked
3. wait() // blocked until notify () is invoked
