Roger Whitcomb created PIVOT-1009: ------------------------------------- Summary: Improve Task to be able to tell what the background Thread that was used to execute it Key: PIVOT-1009 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-1009 Project: Pivot Issue Type: Improvement Components: core-beans, wtk Environment: All Reporter: Roger Whitcomb Assignee: Roger Whitcomb Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.1
The idea is that Tasks are generally run on a background thread, but we don't usually know what that thread was. There should be a field inside the Task class that keeps a weak reference to the thread ("weak" so it doesn't hold up garbage collection). That way any errors caught during the task execution can actually report the thread that was used. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
