Deprecated Thread Methods Are Not Supported

I am making one project where i need to display Home page and when home page displays, after that or continue with that 3 to 5 seconds my other welcome custom dialog is display. bu

Solution 1:

In Android its better to use Handler for managing the Thread and Runnables

Create an Handler instance

Handlerhandler=newHandler();

Create a Runnable thread

Runnablerunnable=newRunnable() {

        @Overridepublicvoidrun() {
            Log.d("runnable started", "inside run");
            handler.removeCallbacks(runnable);
            handler.postDelayed(runnable, 1000);
        }
    };

And start the Runnable using Handler

handler.postDelayed(runnable, 1000);

And to stop the Runnable use

handler.removeCallbacks(runnable);

This link tells you exactly what the problem is, and how to resolve it:

What is this log, when I coded thread.stop()?

Thread.stop is a deprecated API, and deprecated thread methods aren't supported in Android. Therefore it's throwing an UnsupportedOperationException.

The answer is not to use Thread.stop - shut down your threads in a more graceful way, for example by setting a flag which the thread checks periodically.

This link discusses why thread.stop() is deprecated (long ago deprecated in Java, not just Android!):
