[jetty-users] Simplest way to detect: Hey, where'd my thread go?

[Tamás Cservenák <tamas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jetty list!

I have a situation where I confirmed that Jetty's pool is "loosing" threads. I bet it's my code (runtime or maybe even Error is thrown somewhere I assume?), but...

What is the easiest thing with Jetty (8.1.x), to instrument the threads, or install some "custom" UncaughtExceptionHandler or alike (to detect and see where any why is this happening)?

Also, what is the default Jetty behavior with Threads that happens to throw some Runtime Exception or Error? The Jetty log contains no entry about anything, so I am just speculating the reasons why threads are disappearing....

What UncaughtExceptionHandler is by default used?

Any help appreciated.
