Answer from AI

In Java, a thread can be in the following main states, defined by the Thread.State enum:

  • NEW: The thread has been created but not yet started.
  • RUNNABLE: The thread is executing in the JVM but may be waiting for CPU time. Includes Running and Ready states.
  • BLOCKED: The thread is blocked, waiting to acquire a monitor lock to enter a synchronized block or method, or re-enter it.
  • WAITING: The thread is waiting for another thread to perform a specific action without a timeout. For example, calling Object.wait(), Thread.join() without timeout, or LockSupport.park().
  • TIMED_WAITING: The thread is waiting for another thread to perform an action within a specified time. For example, calling Thread.sleep(), Object.wait() with timeout, Thread.join() with timeout, LockSupport.parkNanos() or parkUntil().
  • TERMINATED: The thread has finished execution.

You can get the thread's state using the thread.getState() method.
