0N/A/**
0N/A * An object that creates new threads on demand. Using thread factories
0N/A * removes hardwiring of calls to {@link Thread#Thread(Runnable) new Thread},
0N/A * enabling applications to use special thread subclasses, priorities, etc.
0N/A *
0N/A * <p>
0N/A * The simplest implementation of this interface is just:
0N/A * <pre>
0N/A * class SimpleThreadFactory implements ThreadFactory {
0N/A * public Thread newThread(Runnable r) {
0N/A * return new Thread(r);
0N/A * }
0N/A * }
0N/A * </pre>
0N/A *
0N/A * The {@link Executors#defaultThreadFactory} method provides a more
0N/A * useful simple implementation, that sets the created thread context
0N/A * to known values before returning it.
0N/A * @since 1.5
