Class CatalystThread

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Thread

io.atomix.catalyst.concurrent.CatalystThread

All Implemented Interfaces:

Runnable

public class CatalystThread
extends Thread

Catalyst thread.

The Catalyst thread primarily serves to store a ThreadContext for the current thread. The context is stored in a WeakReference in order to allow the thread to be garbage collected.

There is no ThreadContext associated with the thread when it is first created. It is the responsibility of thread creators to set the thread context when appropriate.
