Ok, first thing, this is work related (I get an excuse to check the forums at work now ), if you don't like work related questsion on forums, please exit now .

A while back there was a topic to do with getting the stack trace from an active thread group. I'm faced with a problem where I need to find and count all the threads in a group that are in the wait() method, and maybe process what it is they are waiting on. I've seen this when doing a ctrl-break and see the wait and the lock listed, what I would like is a programatic way to do this, or some other way to find the threads that are in wait state. I tried searching for the thread but didn't find it, I guess I got the wrong keywords/author.
Any ideas ?

Cheers

Hi
 I'm not sure it was, it was a while ago so I don't remeber how much of the info I thought was in the thread was there, and how much I imagined . The problem with Thread.dumpStack is that it doesn't dump it to a stream I pass it. This means I can't grab it, and as I have multiple threads, redirecting sys out or sys err just to get the output seems a little on the nasty side . More importantly, it only dumps the stack of the thread that is executing the call.
Thanks for looking though.
