Hey folks!
Some bullet points to remember reg. priority of threads
* The priority is an integer from 1 to 10 being MAX_PRIORITY 10, MIN_PRIORITY 1 and NORM_PRIORITY 5.
* Default priority is 5
* You can set the thread's priority using setPriority() method by passing in the desired new priority
* A thread inherit the priority of its parent thread if there is one.
* (Refer RHE book page 207) The
Java specification states that threads must have priorities but it does not dictate precisely what the scheduler should do about priorities. Algorithms that rely on manipulating thread priorities might not run consistently on all platforms.
Have I covered in one stroke. Anything else !!!
