public interface ThreadDeathEvent extends Event
Notification of a completed thread in the target VM. The
notification is generated by the dying thread before it terminates.
Because of this timing, it is possible
for
VirtualMachine.allThreads()
to return this thread
after this event is received.
Note that this event gives no information about the lifetime of the thread object. It may or may not be collected soon depending on what references exist in the target VM.
