How can I pass a parameter to a Java Thread?
To pass a parameter to a Java thread, you can use a Runnable object and pass the parameter to its constructor. Here’s an example of how you can do this:
class MyRunnable implements Runnable < private String parameter; public MyRunnable(String parameter) < this.parameter = parameter; > @Override public void run() < // use the parameter here > > Thread thread = new Thread(new MyRunnable("Hello World")); thread.start();
Alternatively, you can use a Callable object and pass the parameter to its call() method. Here’s an example of how you can do this:
class MyCallable implements Callable < private String parameter; public MyCallable(String parameter) < this.parameter = parameter; > @Override public Void call() throws Exception < // use the parameter here return null; > > ExecutorService executor = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor(); Future future = executor.submit(new MyCallable("Hello World"));
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
