Serge Tsv commented on DERBY-3378:
----------------------------------

Hello!

It looks like all the created daemon threads are using a common naming 
convention with a "derby." name prefix. It's possible because all the daemons 
are created using  a ModuleFactory#getDeamonThread(...) method with a single 
implementation in BaseMonitor, which actually hardcodes the "derby." prefix.

As for a SingletonTimerFactory, I think the first step could be to hardcode a 
"derby." prefix and choose some obvious name for a Timer deamon thread. And the 
next step could be to create a constant for a common thread prefix and probably 
an utility method which will return a full thread name by a specified name.

I do also think it won't be much effort to refactor existing code to use APIs 
which provide a common thread-naming scheme, which could be implemented in a 
final iteration.

I think I could handle the tasks with your approval.

Thanks!

> Looking at the threads with jconsole when derby is running shows derby's 
> timer thread as Timer-0.
> All other derby threads are given a name starting with 'derby.', would be 
> useful if the same was true for the timer thread.
> In SingletonTimerFactory just use the Timer constructor that takes a name.
