Using Threads in Java

The way threads work in Java is that there has to be a class implementing either Runnable interface of extends Thread class. Either way, run method must be overridden wihh desired functionality. From the client class, a new thread must be created (as below) where the first argument passed is an an instance of the class you want executed as a separate thread. Once this is done, the thread can be started by invoking start method.

Thread thrd = new Thread(new ClassImplementingThreadFunc(param1,param2));
Thread thrd2 = new Thread(new ClassImplementingThreadFunc(newParam1,newParam2));
thrd.start();
thrd2.start();
