Set Thread Events Dialog
The Set Thread Events Dialog is displayed by selecting Events... from the
right-click pop-up context menu in the Threads Panel
in the top-level Main Window.
The Set Thread Events Dialog allows the user to specify that the
debugger will suspend (stop) execution of the target JVM on specific
Java thread start (in the Thread Start tab) or thread death (in the Thread Death tab)
events.
The corresponding events are displayed in the Events Panel.
Thread Start Events
The user can select from one of the following radio buttons:
- None - do not stop on any thread start events.
- Thread Name - stop on the thread start event(s) for the specified thread name.
- Thread Group - stop on thread start events for threads in the specified thread group name
(include the complete thread group hierarchy names separated by periods, e.g.
system.main).
- All - stop on all thread start events.
Thread Death Events
The user can select from one of the following radio buttons:
- None - do not stop on any thread death events.
- Thread ID - stop on the thread death event for the specified thread object ID
(from the Threads Panel).
- Thread Name - stop on the thread death event(s) for the specified thread name.
- Thread Group - stop on thread death events for threads in the specified thread group name
(include the complete thread group hierarchy names separated by periods, e.g.
system.main).
- All - stop on all thread death events.
buttons
- OK - The debugger will suspend (stop) execution of the target JVM when the specified
Thread Start/Death events occur.
If there is an error, an error message dialog will be displayed.
- Cancel - closes the dialog without making any changes.
Hitting the Escape key also closes the dialog.
- Help - displays this Help.
Note that on thread start/death events there is no corresponding source code
to display since that thread's stack is empty at that point.
