isDaemon() setDaemon() Old getter/setter API for daemon; use it directly as a property instead.

getName() setName() Old getter/setter API for name; use it directly as a property instead.

name A string used for identification purposes only. It has no semantics. Multiple threads may be given the same name. The initial name is set by the constructor.

join(timeout=None) Wait until the thread terminates. This blocks the calling thread until the thread whose join() method is called terminates – either normally or through an unhandled exception –, or until the optional timeout occurs. When the timeout argument is present and not None, it should be a floating point number specifying a timeout for the operation in seconds (or fractions thereof). As join() always returns None, you must call is_alive() after join() to decide whether a timeout ha

ident The ‘thread identifier’ of this thread or None if the thread has not been started. This is a nonzero integer. See the _thread.get_ident() function. Thread identifiers may be recycled when a thread exits and another thread is created. The identifier is available even after the thread has exited.

is_alive() Return whether the thread is alive. This method returns True just before the run() method starts until just after the run() method terminates. The module function enumerate() returns a list of all alive threads.

class threading.Thread(group=None, target=None, name=None, args=(), kwargs={}, *, daemon=None) This constructor should always be called with keyword arguments. Arguments are: group should be None; reserved for future extension when a ThreadGroup class is implemented. target is the callable object to be invoked by the run() method. Defaults to None, meaning nothing is called. name is the thread name. By default, a unique name is constructed of the form “Thread-N” where N is a small decimal nu

threading.setprofile(func) Set a profile function for all threads started from the threading module. The func will be passed to sys.setprofile() for each thread, before its run() method is called.

threading.stack_size([size]) Return the thread stack size used when creating new threads. The optional size argument specifies the stack size to be used for subsequently created threads, and must be 0 (use platform or configured default) or a positive integer value of at least 32,768 (32 KiB). If size is not specified, 0 is used. If changing the thread stack size is unsupported, a RuntimeError is raised. If the specified stack size is invalid, a ValueError is raised and the stack size is unm

threading.settrace(func) Set a trace function for all threads started from the threading module. The func will be passed to sys.settrace() for each thread, before its run() method is called.
