Java inheritance and extends Thread

Question

I am studying Java and Thread and have a question about inheritance.

For example I have a parent class called SuperThread and this thread has LocalThread and NetThread .

I would like to use SuperThread 's constructor in LocalThread and NetThread .

for example:

public class SuperThread{
    Private String name;
    Private int size;

    SuperThread(String name, int size){
        this.name = name;
        this.size = size;
    }    
}

public class LocalThread extends Thread{
    String path = "";
    LocalThread(String name, int size, String path){
    Super(name, size);
    this.path = path;
}

public class NetThread extents Thread{    
    //Share common constructor from parent class, but it was own part
    }
}

However, I know that I have to extend Thread in order to use thread.

Is there any way to extend Threads while inheriting constructor from parent's class ?

Answer 1

Use Runnable interface and override run method in your LocalThread class.

public class LocalThread extends SuperThread implements Runnable{
   String path = "";
   LocalThread(String name , int size, String path){
      super( name, size);
      this.path = path;
   }

   @Override
   public void run() {
      //some actual job here
   }
}
