A Java virtual machine has a single instance of the implementation * class of this interface. This instance implementing this interface is * an MXBean * that can be obtained by calling * the {@link ManagementFactory#getThreadMXBean} method or * from the {@link ManagementFactory#getPlatformMBeanServer * platform MBeanServer} method. * *

The {@code ObjectName} for uniquely identifying the MXBean for * the thread system within an MBeanServer is: *

* {@link ManagementFactory#THREAD_MXBEAN_NAME * java.lang:type=Threading} *
* * It can be obtained by calling the * {@link PlatformManagedObject#getObjectName} method. * *

Thread ID

* Thread ID is a positive long value returned by calling the * {@link java.lang.Thread#getId} method for a thread. * The thread ID is unique during its lifetime. When a thread * is terminated, this thread ID may be reused. * *

Some methods in this interface take a thread ID or an array * of thread IDs as the input parameter and return per-thread information. * *

Thread CPU time

* A Java virtual machine implementation may support measuring * the CPU time for the current thread, for any thread, or for no threads. * *

* The {@link #isThreadCpuTimeSupported} method can be used to determine * if a Java virtual machine supports measuring of the CPU time for any * thread. The {@link #isCurrentThreadCpuTimeSupported} method can * be used to determine if a Java virtual machine supports measuring of * the CPU time for the current thread. * A Java virtual machine implementation that supports CPU time measurement * for any thread will also support that for the current thread. * *

The CPU time provided by this interface has nanosecond precision * but not necessarily nanosecond accuracy. * *

* A Java virtual machine may disable CPU time measurement * by default. * The {@link #isThreadCpuTimeEnabled} and {@link #setThreadCpuTimeEnabled} * methods can be used to test if CPU time measurement is enabled * and to enable/disable this support respectively. * Enabling thread CPU measurement could be expensive in some * Java virtual machine implementations. * *

Thread Contention Monitoring

* Some Java virtual machines may support thread contention monitoring. * When thread contention monitoring is enabled, the accumulated elapsed * time that the thread has blocked for synchronization or waited for * notification will be collected and returned in the * {@code ThreadInfo} object. *

* The {@link #isThreadContentionMonitoringSupported} method can be used to * determine if a Java virtual machine supports thread contention monitoring. * The thread contention monitoring is disabled by default. The * {@link #setThreadContentionMonitoringEnabled} method can be used to enable * thread contention monitoring. * *

Synchronization Information and Deadlock Detection

* Some Java virtual machines may support monitoring of * {@linkplain #isObjectMonitorUsageSupported object monitor usage} and * {@linkplain #isSynchronizerUsageSupported ownable synchronizer usage}. * The {@link #getThreadInfo(long[], boolean, boolean)} and * {@link #dumpAllThreads} methods can be used to obtain the thread stack trace * and synchronization information including which * {@linkplain LockInfo lock} a thread is blocked to * acquire or waiting on and which locks the thread currently owns. *

* The {@code ThreadMXBean} interface provides the * {@link #findMonitorDeadlockedThreads} and * {@link #findDeadlockedThreads} methods to find deadlocks in * the running application. * * @see ManagementFactory#getPlatformMXBeans(Class) * @see * JMX Specification. * @see * Ways to Access MXBeans * * @author Mandy Chung * @since 1.5 */ public interface ThreadMXBean extends PlatformManagedObject { /** * Returns the current number of live threads including both * daemon and non-daemon threads. * * @return the current number of live threads. */ public int getThreadCount(); /** * Returns the peak live thread count since the Java virtual machine * started or peak was reset. * * @return the peak live thread count. */ public int getPeakThreadCount(); /** * Returns the total number of threads created and also started * since the Java virtual machine started. * * @return the total number of threads started. */ public long getTotalStartedThreadCount(); /** * Returns the current number of live daemon threads. * * @return the current number of live daemon threads. */ public int getDaemonThreadCount(); /** * Returns all live thread IDs. * Some threads included in the returned array * may have been terminated when this method returns. * * @return an array of {@code long}, each is a thread ID. * * @throws java.lang.SecurityException if a security manager * exists and the caller does not have * ManagementPermission("monitor"). */ public long[] getAllThreadIds(); /** * Returns the thread info for a thread of the specified * {@code id} with no stack trace. * This method is equivalent to calling: *
