In a runtime environment these might map directly to pthread calls. </P> <P> Implementors of this interface must provide equals() and hashCode() methods which work properly regardless of how the ThreadProxy is obtained, in particular either through {@link sun.jvm.hotspot.debugger.ThreadAccess} or the thread list provided by {@link sun.jvm.hotspot.debugger.cdbg.CDebugger}. This allows matching up of the OS's notion of the thread list of the target process with any user-level lists that may be present (i.e., the JavaThread list in the HotSpot VM). </P> <P> Implementors of this interface should also provide a toString() which converts the ThreadProxy to a value easily recognizable in the platform's debugger. (For example, on Solaris, "t@<id>".) </P> <P> FIXME: had to be renamed from "Thread" to avoid numerous clashes with java.lang.Thread -- would be nice to pick a more consistent name with the rest of the system. </P> */ public interface ThreadProxy { /** Retrieves the context for the given thread.
