Hello!
This is merely impossible to bear. I do not know Java Threads at all. What is that?
Here is my primitive Thread:
As you see it is simple. Here is my code that starts thread :
This method creates SplashTooltipThread and executes run method once, then run sets isRunning to false(line 13) to stop executing run method.
However when I again call this method(sleepAndShowTooltip) I do not create SplashTooltipThread but instead I only set its variable isRunning to true. I expect that my SplashTooltipThread will again execute method run once. But it never happens. I print that splashTooltipThread.isRunning is true but splashTooltipThread does not execute its run method again.
What happened to while loop inside run method and why it does not see that I set back isRuning to true.
Thank you!
