                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-582
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: lang.concurrent.*
            Reporter: Oliver Heger
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 3.0


The Executor framework in Java 1.5 uses the {{ThreadFactory}} interface for 
creating new threads on demand. Currently there is no base implementation of 
this interface. So if an application needs to configure threads used by an 
{{ExecutorService}}, it has to create a custom implementation.

This is a proposal to add a default {{ThreadFactory}} implementation which 
allows an application to configure some options of the threads to be created. 
Especially the names of newly created threads and their daemon status can be 
configured. Maybe the configuration options can be extended, e.g. for 
specifying a priority or an uncaught exception handler.
