{
public void run(){}
});
final Thread t2=new Thread(new Runnable()
{
public void run(){

t1.start();
t2.start();


wat i m facing is the thread t1 is not getting started from within t2

How do you say it is not started.

Also, you are trying to start the same thread twice, obviously that won't work?

As Stuart pointed out, you are trying to call start twice on the same thread, and you can't do that.

But you can pass the same instance of Runnable to a new thread...

class Threader {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    final Runnable r1 = new Runnable() {
      public void run() {
        System.out.println("r1 runnable");
      }
    };
    final Runnable r2 = new Runnable() {
      public void run() {
        System.out.println("r2 runnable");
        new Thread(r1).start();
      }
    };
    final Thread t1 = new Thread(r1);
    final Thread t2 = new Thread(r2);
    t1.start();
    t2.start();
  }
}
