【Java多线程】Thread和Runnable创建新线程区别

这是一道面试题，创建多线程时，使用继承Thread类和实现Runnable接口有哪些区别呢？

一、Thread

先来看看Thread类和其中的start()方法

class Thread implements Runnable{
   .....}  
// 可见，Thread类实现了Runnable接口

public synchronized void start() {
   
        /**
         * This method is not invoked for the main method thread or "system"
         * group threads created/set up by the VM. Any new functionality added
         * to this method in the future may have to also be added to the VM.
         *
         * A zero status value corresponds to state "NEW".
         */
        if (threadStatus != 0)
            throw new IllegalThreadStateException();

        /* Notify the group that this thread is about to be started
         * so that it can be added to the group's list of threads
         * and the group's unstarted count can be decremented. */
        group.add(this);

        boolean started = false;
