I keep on copying this from project to project and it seems fitting for
Commons Lang:
import java.util.concurrent.ThreadFactory;
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicLong;
public final class DaemonThreadFactory implements ThreadFactory {
private final static AtomicLong COUNT = new AtomicLong(1);
private final String name;
public DaemonThreadFactory(final String name) {
super();
this.name = name;
}
@Override
public Thread newThread(final Runnable r) {
final Thread thread = new Thread(r, name + " " +
COUNT.getAndIncrement());
thread.setDaemon(true);
return thread;
}
}
Thoughts?
