How to stop a thread at the end of another

hello
I want to run two threads. They start at the same time, and I want one of them to end when the first one finishes.
I have a main class, a GUI. When I click on a button, it processes an action( first thread), and since this action takes some time, I decided to create a second thread that is a GUI that is a dialog box that says that it is being processed...
So my dialog bow has to disappear when the process ends.
I've already tried this:
boolean stop = false;
Connect connect = new Connect(this);
connect.start();
LdapSearch searching = new LdapSearch();
searching.start();
while( connect.isAlive() ){
     if( !connect.isAlive() ){
          stop = true;
if( stop == true ){
                       searching.interrupt();
}but unfortunately the text written on my dialog box disappears....
does anyone knows how I can make a thread stop at the end of another properly?
thanks for your help!!
Philippe

sorry the code i tried is:
boolean stop = false;
Connect connect = new Connect(this);
connect.start();
LdapSearch searching = new LdapSearch();
searching.start();
while( stop == false ){
     if( !connect.isAlive() ){
          stop = true;
if( stop == true ){
     searching.interrupt();
}

How to stop a thread without the deprecated Thread.stop() method?

Hi,
I am writting a server application that launches threads, but the run() implementation of these threads are not written by me (i.e. i have no control over them): they are third-party programs. That's why i could not use the well known Java tutorial way to stop a thread (i.e. with a global variable that indicates the thread state).
I would like my server to be able to stop these threads at any time, but without using the deprecated Thread.stop() method.
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance,
Fabien

Thanks Pandava!
I was arrived at the same conclusion... As to me, it is a very bad issue, because it means for example that a servlet server can not stop any servlet it launches (especially for preventing infinite loops).
If i want to be strictly JDK 1.4 compliant, i should not use Thread.stop(). But if i don't use it, i don't have any ideas of how stop a thread that i don't control...

I rented a movie on iTunes and, really annoyingly, it has stopped 30 minutes before the end. Any suggestions? And how do I go about getting a refund?

When recording voiceovers, I click the stop recording button at the end, but I can't figure out how to get rid of the "click" sound before I send off the recording!

drag the BottomRight edge of the region to the left, past the unwanted sound

My film has not totally downloaded, I did not realise this until it stopped 15 minutes before the end, how do I know when the rented film I have purchased has been fully downloaded. Can I retrieve anyhow

My film I rented has not fully downloaded I only realised that when it stopped 15 minutes before the end , how do I know when a film has been fully downloaded. Oi would not have thought the film would not have started unless the film was fully downloaded. The film warned me prior to tarting that I only had 48 hours to watch once starting!

I'm sorry but this is too funny to pass up.

How to stop main thread ?

Hi,
Inside my java class, after I launch a GUI, I want to stop this main thread. After user make some choice and close GUI window, then, I want to go back to main thread. I use wait() method inside my class to stop main thread , but it does not work and it give me "IllegalMonitorStateException" error. I met same thing, when user close the GUI window and call method notifyAll(). How to stop main thread for a while and how to go back?? Thanks
Gary

Hi,
you can create a boolean, and create a while loop, with a Thread.sleep(time); when you want to continue, you just have to change the state of your boolean. So you don't hava to exit the main. And you can't restart a run() in a thread. You can run it only once, so try to keep in your run() with an appropriate loop.
Hope it helps.

How do I justify text at the end of a column

No. Like Peter and Walt, I wonder why you'd want to, considering the appearance of such manipulation, illustrated above. Is this a requirement for some specific type of document?
Regarding your second question, there's no way to do this using Pages as it comes out-of-the-box (or in the downloaded edition). But you can sort the paragraphs of a document alphabetically using WordService, freeware from Devon Technologies. The link will take you to their download page. Scroll down to the Freeware section and the download link for WordService.

How to get each thread in the threadpool

Hi,everyone.I'm now learning java.util.concurrent package and I have two questions about the threadpool.
1) How to get each thread in the threadpool;
2) How to get each thread's data in the threadpool and dispaly them onto GUI;
e.g :
There are 5 threads in the threadpool(ThreadPoolExecutor) and I have 100 tasks(Runnable or Callable),every task scans a directory(every task scans a different directory),how can I display the "real-time" count of the files in the directory which the current 5 threads in the threadpool scan onto the ListView Items in the GUI?

Finally you notify the monitor when the execution has completed.

How to stop mail from recovering the same message over and over again to the extent that it has wiped out all start up disk memory?

How to stop mail from recovering the same message over and over again to the extent that it has wiped out all start up disk memory?

You need to find and delete (move to the Trash) the offline mail cache (.offline cache.) It's a hidden folder (files and folders with a preceding dot are hidden) inside the Mail folder (inside IMAP) in your user library. Since it's hidden, in order to see it run the following command in Terminal in Applications>Utilities. Hit return/enter once you have pasted in the command.
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true ; killall Finder
To reverse this and hide all those hidden files and folders again
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false ; killall Finder
Leave hidden files/folders enabled until you finish emptying the Trash so you know it's gone.

What do you mean with "it doesn't work"? Do you get a compiler error? Do you get an exception at runtime? What's the error message?
