    copied!<p>I have a MyThread object which I instantiate when my app is loaded through the server, I mark it as a Daemon thread and then call <code>start()</code> on it. The thread is meant to sit and wait for information from a queue as long as the application is active. My problem/question is this: Currently MyThread is extending Thread because I mark it as Daemon and I read about how it's more prefferable to implement Runnable and to use Executors. So what I wanted to ask is if MyThread will implement Runnable instead of extending Thread (and of course will be renamed) and I'll use <code>newSingleThreadScheduledExecutor()</code> how, what or maybe where, do I mark something as Daemon. I hope I haven't made a mess of terms, please excuse me if I have as some parts of the multithreading environment are very new to me.</p> <p>Thanks Ittai</p> <p>Update: The module I'm referring to in my app is a web-app which has a few threads actually of this sort and what they do have in common is that they all in the <code>ServletContext</code> as a member for various reasons. Currently I extend <code>Thread</code> to <code>WebThread</code> which has the <code>ServletContext</code> as a memebr and all subclasses can utilize this. If I switch over to the Runnable paradigm with the Executor and ThreadFactory than basically I need to have an ugly hybrid of <code>WebRunnable</code> which implements <code>Runnable</code> and has the <code>ServletContext</code> as a public member and have my <code>ThreadFactory</code> implement <code>newThread(WebRunnable arg0)</code> in addition to <code>newThread(Runnable arg0)</code>. I'm not sure what's best. Thanks</p>
