Thread.State BLOCKED
Thread state for a thread blocked waiting for a monitor lock.
A thread in the blocked state is waiting for a monitor lock
to enter a synchronized block/method or
reenter a synchronized block/method after calling
Object.wait
.
Thread.State RUNNABLE
Thread state for a runnable thread. A thread in the runnable state is executing in the Java virtual machine but it may be waiting for other resources from the operating system such as processor.
Thread.State TERMINATED
Thread state for a terminated thread. The thread has completed execution.
Thread.State TIMED_WAITING
Thread state for a waiting thread with a specified waiting time. A thread is in the timed waiting state due to calling one of the following methods with a specified positive waiting time:
Thread.sleep
Object.wait
with timeoutThread.join
with timeoutLockSupport.parkNanos
LockSupport.parkUntil
Thread.State WAITING
Thread state for a waiting thread. A thread is in the waiting state due to calling one of the following methods:
Object.wait
with no timeoutThread.join
with no timeoutLockSupport.park
A thread in the waiting state is waiting for another thread to perform a particular action. For example, a thread that has called Object.wait() on an object is waiting for another thread to call Object.notify() or Object.notifyAll() on that object. A thread that has called Thread.join() is waiting for a specified thread to terminate.
