Yang Ye commented on KAFKA-356:
-------------------------------
Jay, thanks for the comments.
1. Yeah, as also commented by Jun
2. logIdent is a field inherited from the Thread class, which is printed out
first, then the log messages you specify. Say if you have logIdent "A class, "
and it says info("blabla") in your code, the actual log will be "A class,
blabla", this also answers comment 4, 5
3. Yeah I can, but it seems that in our whole project, we don't use scaladoc
syntaxes other than "/**, */": https://wiki.scala-lang.org/display/SW/Syntax,
so I won't use fancy syntaxes like bold, italic, link, etc.
6. I have thought about that, but neither BackgroundThread nor WorkerThread
carry much meaning. So what about "InterruptableThread"
7. I've changed it to doWork()
> Create a generic Kafka thread class that includes basic boiler plate code of
> instantiating and shutting down threads cleanly

> We have a lot of threads that basically run in a loop and use an isRunning
> atomic boolean and count down latch. It will be useful to refactor it out
> into a helper runnable that these can extend. Verifying the lifecycle details
> for each is kind of a pain and it pretty easy to either not cleanly shutdown
> all the threads.
