in the javadoc api it's recommended to use a variable to indicate that the thread should stop running
here is an example from the javasoft tutorial :


private volatile Thread blinker;

public void start() {
blinker = new Thread(this);
blinker.start();
}


public void stop() {
blinker = null;
}

public void run() {
Thread thisThread = Thread.currentThread();
while (blinker == thisThread) {
try {
thisThread.sleep(interval);
} catch (InterruptedException e){
}
repaint();
}
}
