I don't know if I'm very right but I think that thread.stop make the thread to die too. Because when thread.stop is called the thread dies and cannever resume again. please pardon me if I'm wrong.
thread.stop,thread.resume & thread.suspend are deprecated methods..

the best way to do this is to make an loop inside the run method and test a condition before every iteration. When you want the thread to die, just change the loop condition. This way is very clean and does not need stop or other deprecated methods to be used... Val [This message has been edited by Valentin Crettaz (edited September 23, 2001).]
public void destroy() Destroys this thread, without any cleanup. Any monitors it has locked remain locked. (This method is not implemented.) Do what Val suggests.
