The Threads view in the Debugger window lists the thread groups in the current debugging process. You switch the display of the
Threads view by clicking in the toolbar of the Debugger window.
The thread groups are expandable hierarchies. Each group contains other thread groups or single threads, which in turn contain Locals and CallStack nodes. The Locals node displays local variables and their current values in the context of the thread. The CallStack node lists the hierarchy of method calls made during execution of the thread.
The following table describes the icons used in the Threads view.
Icon | Description |
---|---|
![]() | A thread group |
![]() | The current thread group |
![]() | The current thread |
![]() | A running thread |
![]() | A suspended thread |
Right-clicking a thread displays a contextual menu with the items listed in the following table.
