Thread.stop is inherently unsafe and has been deprecated since Java 1.2 (1998). It's time to terminally deprecate this method so it can be degraded and removed in the future.
This PR does not propose any changes to the JVM TI StopThread function (or the corresponding JDWP command or JDI method). ------------- Commit messages: - Initial commit Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6616/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=6616&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8277861 Stats: 2 lines in 2 files changed: 1 ins; 0 del; 1 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6616.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/6616/head:pull/6616 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6616
