Question

I have a java program which implements runnable. In the body, I have Thread animator = new Thread(); and then animator.start(); The problem is that the run() method of my program does not execute. Am I missing something?

Answer 1

As you said java program which implements runnable.

In that class ( name say Animator) body you have written

Thread animator = new Thread();
animator.start();

If i am not wrong

pass runnable class instance, here i think it would be this while creating thread

Thread animator = new Thread(this);
animator.start();
