[wildfly-dev] Re: Use of ThreadGroup in WildFly and WildFly Core

So I moved on to wildfly-core where I think are the last points where groups are created. I tried to remove the ThreadGroup creation altogether, and if there was "%G" used in the name pattern I replaced it with the original thread group name, so in effect there should be no change in the names of the threads. One more interesting place I found is the thread-factory resource (ThreadFactoryResourceDefinition) which allows a user to define custom thread factory and define the priority, group name and name pattern attributes. The priority is however not set via the ThreadGroup instance but directly on created threads, so the ThreadGroup is still mostly a decoration. https://github.com/wildfly/wildfly-core/pull/5672 Regards, Tomas
