        at java.lang.Thread.destroy(Thread.java:709)
Comments
EVALUATION This method has never been implemented, and its behavior has not changed since this method was stubbed out in 8/95 (Thread.java rev 1.39). Admittedly the exception thrown (NoSuchMethodException) is not appropriate given its specification. However, it seems pointles to change it at this point. Probably we should document the current behavior. At some point, we should either deprecate or implement this call (probably the former). joshua.bloch@Eng 2001-07-17
