Introduction
Life cycle
The life cycle of a thread
Thread states
| State | Description | New | The thread has been created (its constructor has been called), but not yet started. | Runnable | The thread's start method has been called and the thread is available to be run by the thread scheduler. | Blocked | The thread has been temporarily removed from the Runnable state. This can happen if the thread's sleep method is called, if the thread is waiting on I/O, or if the thread requests a lock on an object that's already locked. | Waiting | The thread has called its wait method so that other threads can access an object. | Terminated | The thread's run method has ended. |
