Method Details

name

Thread.Builder.OfVirtualPREVIEW name(String name)

Description copied from interface: Thread.Builder

Sets the thread name.

Specified by:

name in interface Thread.BuilderPREVIEW

Parameters:

name - thread name

Returns:

this builder

name

Thread.Builder.OfVirtualPREVIEW name(String prefix,
 long start)

Description copied from interface: Thread.Builder

Sets the thread name to be the concatenation of a string prefix and the string representation of a counter value. The counter's initial value is start. It is incremented after a Thread is created with this builder so that the next thread is named with the new counter value. A ThreadFactory created with this builder is seeded with the current value of the counter. The ThreadFactory increments its copy of the counter after newThread is used to create a Thread.

Specified by:

name in interface Thread.BuilderPREVIEW

Parameters:

prefix - thread name prefix

start - the starting value of the counter

Returns:

this builder

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if start is negative

allowSetThreadLocals

Thread.Builder.OfVirtualPREVIEW allowSetThreadLocals(boolean allow)

Description copied from interface: Thread.Builder

Sets whether the thread is allowed to set values for its copy of thread-local variables. The default is to allow. If not allowed, then any attempt by the thread to set a value for a thread-local with the ThreadLocal.set(Object) method throws UnsupportedOperationException. Any attempt to set the thread's context class loader with setContextClassLoader also throws. The ThreadLocal.get() method always returns the initial-value when thread locals are not allowed.

Specified by:

allowSetThreadLocals in interface Thread.BuilderPREVIEW

Parameters:

allow - true to allow, false to disallow

Returns:

this builder

inheritInheritableThreadLocals

Thread.Builder.OfVirtualPREVIEW inheritInheritableThreadLocals(boolean inherit)

Description copied from interface: Thread.Builder

Sets whether the thread inherits the initial values of inheritable-thread-local variables from the constructing thread. The default is to inherit.

The initial values of InheritableThreadLocals are never inherited when Thread.Builder.allowSetThreadLocals(boolean)^PREVIEW is used to disallow the thread to have its own copy of thread-local variables.

Specified by:

inheritInheritableThreadLocals in interface Thread.BuilderPREVIEW

Parameters:

inherit - true to inherit, false to not inherit

Returns:

this builder

uncaughtExceptionHandler

Thread.Builder.OfVirtualPREVIEW uncaughtExceptionHandler(Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler ueh)

Description copied from interface: Thread.Builder

Sets the uncaught exception handler.

Specified by:

uncaughtExceptionHandler in interface Thread.BuilderPREVIEW

Parameters:

ueh - uncaught exception handler

Returns:

this builder
