Java 5.0

An instance of this interface is an object that creates Thread objects to run Runnable objects. You might define a THReadFactory if you want to set the priority, name , or ThreadGroup of the threads used by a ThreadPoolExecutor , for example. A number of the factory methods of the Executors utility class rely on THReadPoolExecutor and accept a ThreadFactory argument.

 public interface  ThreadFactory  {  // Public Instance Methods  Thread  newThread  (Runnable  r  );   }
