58 * Begins execution of a new thread at the pure virtual method Thread::run().
59 * Execution of the thread is guaranteed to have started after this function
65 * Requests that the thread exit gracefully.
66 * Returns immediately; thread execution is guaranteed to be complete after
67 * a subsequent call to Thread::wait.
72 * Immediately terminates the thread.
73 * This should be used with extreme caution, as the thread will not have
74 * any opportunity to release resources it may be holding (such as memory
80 * Waits for thread to finish.
81 * Note: This does not stop a thread, you have to do this on your own.
82 * Returns false immediately if the thread is not started or has been waited
88 * Returns true if the calling thread is this Thread object.
