In Java, if the main thread somehow exits then all other threads will stop executing. This generally does not happen, as the main thread will wait for all child threads to terminate before the main thread itself finishes. Interrupting this process is hard to do short of an un-handled exception or a call to System.exit.

If the child thread is also a daemon thread, then the child thread will continue to execute. If the child thread is a normal thread then, the moment System.exit is called, the child thread also terminates

If you call the join() method from the child thread, then the main thread will wait until the child is over before executing the System.exit

How do you delete messages on the Motorola droid?

To delete text messages, if using the touch screen, go to messaging. Then press the little button at the bottom that had the 4 lines (it is next to the little house symbol). When options come up, click on delete threads. But warning: doing this will delete ALL of your messages. I don't know a way on how to delete only one.

How do you delete a thread that you have started in the Community Forum?

Unless no one else has posted on your thread, you cannot delete it. If no one else has posted, view the thread and in the upper right hand corner of your post there will be a 'x'. Click that, click yes that you are sure you want to delete it, and it is gone. If someone has posted already, contact a supervisor from the list provided below, or post in the forum that you would like it deleted. A supervisor should see it and decide on the best course of action.

Wouldn't it tidy up the community forum if after having a query answered you could then delete your own thread?

Sometimes we like to leave threads around for someone to look at later. If you have a good reason to want your thread deleted, contact a supervisor. It would open room for abuse. If someone didn't like how their thread was going, they could delete it. If you would like it implemented, post in the suggestion box section in the Community Forum


What is implicit and explicit multi threading?

implicit multi threading is where the programming runtime determines thread safety and executes code in parallel (on different threads, anyway) without the programmer saying to do so. explicit is, of course, the opposite where the programmer must initialize a thread, give it work, manage its lifecycle, etc.
