从我在Java中使用线程的时间来看，我发现了两种编写线程的方法：
使用可运行的机具：
public class MyRunnable implements Runnable {
public void run() {
//Code
}
}
//Started with a "new Thread(new MyRunnable()).start()" call
或者，使用扩展线程：
public class MyThread extends Thread {
public MyThread() {
super("MyThread");
}
public void run() {
//Code
}
}
//Started with a "new MyThread().start()" call
这两个代码块有什么显著的区别吗？

如果使用runnable，则可以节省空间以扩展到任何其他类。
其他回答
Java不支持多重继承，所以如果您扩展Thread类，则不会扩展其他类。
例如：如果您创建一个applet，那么它必须扩展applet类，所以这里创建线程的唯一方法是实现Runnable接口
您可以共同使用它们
例子：
public class A implements Runnable{
@Override
public void run() {
while(true){
System.out.println("Class A is running");
try {
Thread.sleep(3000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}}
}
}
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Thread myThread =new Thread(new A());// 1
myThread.start();
System.out.println(" executed after thread A");//will never be reached
}
}
实例化接口在代码和线程的实现之间提供了更清晰的分离，因此在这种情况下我更希望实现Runnable。
对于大多数工作线程来说，最好的方法是将线程完全封装在工作线程类中，这样就不会有任何外部干扰，导致不需要的和无效的线程/类状态。
我刚刚发布了一个示例，因此我也将与您分享：
/**
* This worker can only run once
* @author JayC667
*/
public class ProperThreading {
private final Thread mThread = new Thread(() -> runWorkingLoop()); // if you want worker to be able to run multiple times, move initialisation into startThread()
private volatile boolean mThreadStarted = false;
private volatile boolean mStopRequested = false;
private final long mLoopSleepTime;
public ProperThreading(final long pLoopSleepTime /* pass more arguments here, store in members */ ) {
mLoopSleepTime = pLoopSleepTime;
}
public synchronized void startThread() {
if (mThreadStarted) throw new IllegalStateException("Worker Thread may only be started once and is already running!");
mThreadStarted = true;
mThread.start();
}
private void runWorkingLoop() {
while (!mStopRequested /* && other checks */ ) {
try {
// do the magic work here
Thread.sleep(mLoopSleepTime);
} catch (final InterruptedException e) {
break;
} catch (final Exception e) {
// do at least some basic handling here, you should NEVER ignore exception unless you know exactly what you're doing, and then it should be commented!
}
}
}
public synchronized void stopThread() {
if (!mThreadStarted) throw new IllegalStateException("Worker Thread is not even running yet!");
mStopRequested = true;
mThread.interrupt();
}
}
如果使用runnable，则可以节省空间以扩展到任何其他类。
