public class java.lang.ThreadDeath
extends java.lang.Error (§1.46)
{
public ThreadDeath(); §1.57.1
}
An instance of ThreadDeath is thrown in the victim thread when the stop method with
zero arguments (§1.19.37) in class Thread is called.
The top-level error handler will not print out a message if ThreadDeath is never caught.
The class ThreadDeath is specifically a subclass of Error rather than Exception, even
though it is a “normally occurrence, ” becuase many applications catch all occurrences of
Exception and then discard the exception.
