how to override thread.start() method in java?

Question

I need to implement thread.start() method in my java code. Please let me know through an example of overriding of thread.start() method and how it works?

Answer 1

We can override start/run method of Thread class because it is not final. But it is not recommended to override start() method

class Bishal extends Thread { 
public void start() 
    { 
        System.out.println("Start Method"); 
    } 
public void run() 
    { 
        System.out.println("Run Method"); 
    } 
} class Main{ 
public static void main(String[] args) 
    { 
        Bishal thread = new Bishal(); 
        thread.start(); 
        System.out.println("Main Method"); 
    } 
} 

when we are calling start() method by an object of Bishal class, then any thread won’t be created and all the functions are done by main thread only.
