/* author by w3cschool.cc TwoThreadGetName.java */ public class TwoThreadGetName extends Thread { public void run() { for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { printMsg(); } } public void printMsg() { Thread t = Thread.currentThread(); String name = t.getName(); System.out.println("name=" + name); } public static void main(String[] args) { TwoThreadGetName tt = new TwoThreadGetName(); tt.start(); for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { tt.printMsg(); } } }
The above code is run output is:
name=main name=main name=main name=main name=main name=Thread-0 name=Thread-0 name=Thread-0 name=Thread-0 name=Thread-0 name=main name=Thread-0 name=main name=Thread-0 name=main name=Thread-0 name=main name=Thread-0 name=main name=Thread-0
