How to Use Thread.join in Java

In this example we will show how to use thread.join in Java.

Source Code

package com.beginner.examples;

public class ThreadJoinExample extends Thread{
    Thread thread1;
    public ThreadJoinExample(Thread thread1){
        this.thread1 = thread1;
    }
    @Override
    public void run() {
        try 
        {
        	thread1.join();
        	// print current thread name
        	System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName());
        } 
        catch (InterruptedException e) 
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Thread thread1 = Thread.currentThread();
        for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++){
            ThreadJoinExample thread = new ThreadJoinExample(thread1);
            thread.start();
        }
    }
}

Output:

Thread-0
Thread-1
Thread-2
