/**
* An implementation of the {@link ThreadFactory} interface that provides some
* configuration options for the threads it creates.
* <p>
* A {@link ThreadFactory} is used for instance by an {@link ExecutorService} to
* create the threads it uses for executing tasks. In many cases users do not
* have to care about a {@link ThreadFactory} because the default one used by an
* {@link ExecutorService} will do. However, if there are special requirements
* for the threads, a custom {@link ThreadFactory} has to be created.
* </p>
* <p>
* This class provides some frequently needed configuration options for the
* threads it creates. These are the following:
* </p>
* <ul>
* <li>A name pattern for the threads created by this factory can be specified.
* This is often useful if an application uses multiple executor services for
* different purposes. If the names of the threads used by these services have
* meaningful names, log output or exception traces can be much easier to read.
* Naming patterns are <em>format strings</em> as used by the {@code
* String.format()} method. The string can contain the place holder {@code %d}
* which will be replaced by the number of the current thread ({@code
* ThreadFactoryImpl} keeps a counter of the threads it has already created).
* For instance, the naming pattern {@code "My %d. worker thread"} will result
* in thread names like {@code "My 1. worker thread"}, {@code
* "My 2. worker thread"} and so on.</li>
* <li>A flag whether the threads created by this factory should be daemon
* threads. This can impact the exit behavior of the current Java application
* because the JVM shuts down if there are only daemon threads running.</li>
* <li>The priority of the thread. Here an integer value can be provided. The
* {@link Thread} class defines constants for valid ranges of priority
* values.</li>
* <li>The {@link UncaughtExceptionHandler} for the thread. This handler is
* called if an uncaught exception occurs within the thread.</li>
* </ul>
* <p>
* {@link BasicThreadFactory} wraps another thread factory which actually
* creates new threads. The configuration options are set on the threads created
* by the wrapped thread factory. On construction time the factory to be wrapped
* can be specified. If none is provided, a default {@link ThreadFactory} is
* used.
* </p>
* <p>
* Instances of {@link BasicThreadFactory} are not created directly, but the
* nested {@link Builder} class is used for this purpose. Using the builder only
* the configuration options an application is interested in need to be set. The
* following example shows how a {@link BasicThreadFactory} is created and
* installed in an {@link ExecutorService}:
* </p>
*
* <pre>
* // Create a factory that produces daemon threads with a naming pattern and
* // a priority
* BasicThreadFactory factory = new BasicThreadFactory.Builder()
* .namingPattern("workerthread-%d")
* .daemon(true)
* .priority(Thread.MAX_PRIORITY)
* .build();
* // Create an executor service for single-threaded execution
* ExecutorService exec = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor(factory);
* </pre>
*
* @since 3.0
