public interface ThreadFactory
new Thread,
 enabling applications to use special thread subclasses, priorities, etc.
 The simplest implementation of this interface is just:
 
 class SimpleThreadFactory implements ThreadFactory {
   public Thread newThread(Runnable r) {
     return new Thread(r);
   }
 }
 The Executors.defaultThreadFactory() method provides a more
 useful simple implementation, that sets the created thread context
 to known values before returning it.| Modifier and Type | Method and Description | 
|---|---|
| Thread | newThread(Runnable r)Constructs a new  Thread. |
