Q: Is it true that ThreadDeath exception was "secret" and
accidentally exposed to public?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes it is true. The original implementation was not intended to
show it to us. But due to some
mistakes of SUN programmers it got out and now it is a part of
API.
Warning: "An application should catch instances of this class
only if it must clean up after being
terminated asynchronously. If ThreadDeath is caught by a method,
it is important that it be rethrown so
that the thread actually dies." from API reference for
java.lang.ThreadDeath.
