The Java Thread run() method is called if this thread was constructed using a separate Runnable run object, else this method does nothing and returns.
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.lang.Thread.run() method
public void run()Parameters
NA
Return ValueThis method does not return any value.
ExceptionNA
Example: Running a Thread implementing Runnable InterfaceThe following example shows the usage of Java Thread run() method. In this program, we've created a thread class ThreadDemo by implementing Runnable interface. In constructor, a new thread is created using new Thread. Using start(), the thread is started which in turn calls the run() method when thread is scheduled to run.
package com.tutorialspoint; public class ThreadDemo implements Runnable { Thread t; ThreadDemo() { // thread created t = new Thread(this, "Admin Thread"); // prints thread created System.out.println("thread = " + t); // this will call run() function System.out.println("Calling run() function... "); t.start(); } public void run() { System.out.println("Inside run() function"); } public static void main(String args[]) { new ThreadDemo(); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
thread = Thread[Admin Thread,5,main] Calling run() function... Inside run() functionExample: Running a Thread extending Thread Class
The following example shows the usage of Java Thread run() method. In this program, we've created a thread class ThreadDemo by extending Thread class. In constructor, a new thread is created using new Thread. Using start(), the thread is started which in turn calls the run() method when thread is scheduled to run.
package com.tutorialspoint; public class ThreadDemo extends Thread { Thread t; ThreadDemo() { // thread created t = new Thread(this, "Admin Thread"); // prints thread created System.out.println("thread = " + t); // this will call run() function System.out.println("Calling run() function... "); t.start(); } public void run() { System.out.println("Inside run() function"); } public static void main(String args[]) { new ThreadDemo(); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
thread = Thread[Admin Thread,5,main] Calling run() function... Inside run() function
