ThreadGroupReference parent()
ThreadGroupReference mirroring the parent of this
 thread group in the target VM, or null if this is a top-level
 thread group.void suspend()
ThreadReference.suspend().
 This is not guaranteed to be an atomic
 operation; if the target VM is not interrupted at the time
 this method is
 called, it is possible that new threads will be created
 between the time that threads are enumerated and all of them
 have been suspended.VMCannotBeModifiedException - if the VirtualMachine is read-only - see VirtualMachine.canBeModified().void resume()
ThreadReference.resume().VMCannotBeModifiedException - if the VirtualMachine is read-only - see VirtualMachine.canBeModified().List<ThreadReference> threads()
ThreadReference for each live thread
 in this thread group. Only the live threads in this immediate thread group
 (and not its subgroups) are returned.  A thread is alive if it
 has been started and has not yet been stopped.ThreadReference objects mirroring the
 live threads from this thread group in the target VM.List<ThreadGroupReference> threadGroups()
ThreadGroupReference in this
 thread group. Only the active thread groups in this immediate thread group
 (and not its subgroups) are returned.
 See java.lang.ThreadGroup
 for information about 'active' ThreadGroups.ThreadGroupReference objects mirroring the
 active thread groups from this thread group in the target VM.
