multithreading - When does a Java Thread reach the 'Die' State

Question

In Java, Die is one of the states on a thread.

What causes a thread to enter this state?

Answer 1

From the Thread API, here is a complete list:

• If the run() method returns.
• If an exception is thrown that propagates beyond the run method.
• If it is a daemon thread and all non-daemon threads have 'died'
• If the exit method of class Runtime has been called (even at another thread).
