41 * VM interface for Thread of executable code. Holds VM dependent state.
42 * It is deliberately package local and final and should only be accessed
43 * by the Thread class.
44 * <p>
45 * This is the GNU Classpath reference implementation, it should be adapted
46 * for a specific VM.
47 * <p>
48 * The following methods must be implemented:
49 * <ul>
50 * <li>native void start(long stacksize);
51 * <li>native void interrupt();
52 * <li>native boolean isInterrupted();
53 * <li>native void suspend();
54 * <li>native void resume();
55 * <li>native void nativeSetPriority(int priority);
56 * <li>native void nativeStop(Throwable t);
57 * <li>native static Thread currentThread();
58 * <li>static native void yield();
59 * <li>static native boolean interrupted();
60 * </ul>
61 * All other methods may be implemented to make Thread handling more efficient
62 * or to implement some optional (and sometimes deprecated) behaviour. Default
63 * implementations are provided but it is highly recommended to optimize them
64 * for a specific VM.
