Recreating Thread Object After Termination

Recreating Thread After Termination

I have created a thread. It can be started and stopped but can't start it again because the thread has been terminated. How can i create the object again so the state will be "NEW".


Declaring object:

Code:

---

public MainBot mainBotObject = new MainBot();

---

Start Thread:

Code:

---

        if(mainBotObject.isInterrupted()) {
            //need to renew the object here
        }
        System.out.println(mainBotObject.getState());//First Run: New,Second Run: Terminated <<state of thread
        mainBotObject.start();
        System.out.println(mainBotObject.getState());//First Run: Runnable <<state of thread

---

Stop Thread:

Code:

---

        System.out.println(mainBotObject.getState());//First Run: Runnable <<state of thread
        mainBotObject.interrupt();
        System.out.println(mainBotObject.getState());//First Run: Runnable <<state of thread

To create a Thread object, use the new statement.

How can i do this? I need to recreate the object with another statement:

Code:

---

public MainBot mainBotObject = new MainBot();

---

If so how should I go by calling this statement? I tried putting it into a public void then calling when the object is terminated, but for some reason public objects can't be declared in a void. How can i go about doing this?

If not what is the best approach?

Thanks for a reply.

The same way you did it the first time round.
