Document that ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory.newThread can return null to reject request

XMLWordPrintable

      ThreadFactory.newThread is documented to return null if the request is rejected. The very similar ForkJoinWorkerThreadFactory should do likewise

           * @return constructed thread, or {@code null} if the request to
           * create a thread is rejected
           */
          Thread newThread(Runnable r);

               * @return the new worker thread, or {@code null} if the request
               * to create a thread is rejected
               * @throws NullPointerException if the pool is null
               */
              public ForkJoinWorkerThread newThread(ForkJoinPool pool);
