Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:ThreadFactory [CHANGED]
public interface ThreadFactory An object that creates new threads on demand. Using thread factories removes hardwiring of calls to `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.defaultThreadFactory()` method provides a more useful simple implementation, that sets the created thread context to known values before returning it. Since: 1.5 See Also: `Thread.Builder.factory()`PREVIEW

### method:newThread(java.lang.Runnable) [CHANGED]
### newThread Thread newThread (Runnable r) Constructs a new unstarted `Thread` . Implementations may also initialize priority, name, daemon status, `ThreadGroup`, etc to run the given runnable. Parameters: `r` - a runnable to be executed by new thread instance Returns: constructed thread, or `null` if the request to create a thread is rejected See Also: Inheritance when creating threads
