I am developing a Java application which has some threads. I print in the console the threadId, for instance 17, 18, 19, and so on.
But when I have the debug perspective open, I have this “Debug” window (most up-left window), which shows me the current threads, but they use [Thread-2], [thread-3]. The numbers not necessarly match the ThreadIds.
Is there any way so I can correlate the ThreadId I get in my console to the thread shown in the “Debug” window?
I don’t know of a way to do that.
However, there is another approach. Those thread names are generated automatically by the Thread constructor you are using. However, there is a method called
Thread.setName()that allows you to change the thread’s name. You could possibly tweak your application to change the names of the threads that it creates to match the thread’s ids.
