Hi,

I would like to get a threadName from a threadID. I would like
something like "getThreadNameFromThreadID" in the line here:

String threadName = System.getThreadNameFromThreadID(long threadID);

It doesn't seem like this is available in java 1.4.2. Any suggestions?

What is threadID?

If you can get the Thread instance from the threadID
you can use Thread.getName()

Threads do not have any assigned numerical ID numbers in Java. Where
did you get threadID from, and what is it?

What kind of "System" class is this? There is no such method in
java.lang.System, not even in 1.5.x.

String tcurrent = Thread.currentThread().getName();
