This isn't a Java-only concept. It is widely available. Here's a sample: c++ "thread_group provides for a collection of threads that are related in some fashion." http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html#thread.thread_management.threadgroup perl "Thread::Pool - group of threads for performing similar jobs" http://search.cpan.org/dist/Thread-Pool/lib/Thread/Pool.pm haskell "This module extends Control.Concurrent.Thread with the ability to wait for a group of threads to terminate." http://hackage.haskell.org/package/threads-0.5.0.2/docs/Control-Concurrent-Thread-Group.html ruby "ThreadGroup provides a means of keeping track of a number of threads as a group." http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-2.1.2/ThreadGroup.html ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22013> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
