multiple threads performing different tasks

Question

This is the first time I am writing multiple threaded program. I have a doubt that multiple thread which I'l create will point to the same run method and perform the task written in run(). but I want different threads to perform different tasks e.g 1 thread will insert into database other update and etc. My question is how to create different threads that will perform different tasks

Answer 1

Create your threads that do different jobs:

public class Job1Thread extends Thread {

    @Override
    public void run() {
        // Do job 1 here
    }

}

public class Job2Thread extends Thread {

    @Override
    public void run() {
        // Do job 2 here
    }

}

Start your threads and they will work for you:

Job1Thread job1 = new Job1Thread();
Job2Thread job2 = new Job2Thread();

job1.start();
job2.start();
