Thread.stop() method deprecated... what now ?

[jorgepinho]

Hi there (sorry my english).

Not only I get that compile error, but I have also read something that that´s not the best way to stop a thread...

So, to stop a Thread, is = null sufficient ?

I apreciate some good explanation, all the FAQs I have read, only say to use = null, why is that?


thankx

Jorge
