Can I name this Thread instance? [Solved]

I wanna interrupt this tread later on but I don't know how I can do it. I can't name it anyhow! new Thread(() -> { while (true) { System.out.println("Thread is running"); try { Thread.sleep(1000); } catch (InterruptedException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } }).start();

You just need to use a different constructor with your lambda. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42975231/naming-thread-within-lambda-expressions

I would say you can't. You can't name the tread and while(true) is an infinity loop. I would create an object: Thread t = new Thread();

Maybe this works: Thread myThread = new Thread() -> { //your code }).start();

Despite I've done this a hundred times and see the red line below my code, finally this type of declaration worked. I used to get the error because of .start() method at the end of my code! in this way we have to call the start() method after declaration. Thread t1 = new Thread(() -> { // bunch of code... }); t1.start();

So how can I put this infinite loop and other stuff in it? Cause I just simplified the contents of while loop.
