Life Cycle of Thread..

Answer / gajendra

A Thread has the following life cycles states
1.New/Born state:When a thread is just instantiated we say
that the thread is in born state.now it can not compete for
CPU cycles.
2.Active state:When we call the start() on thread object a
thread moves from born state to active state.Here the code
associated with run() will be executed.
3.Blocked state:When the thread is temporarily keep out of
ready queue,we say that the thread is in blocked state. In
this state it can't compete for CPU cycles.

forcibly terminate the thread, it will be moved to dead
state.
