Daemon Thread in Java -javatpoint Daemon Thread in Java Daemon thread in Java is a service provider thread that provides services to the user thread. Its life depend on the mercy of user threads ie. when all the user threads dies, JVM terminates this thread automatically.

The jconsole tool provides information about the loaded classes, memory usage, running threads ete. Points to remember for Daemon Thread in Java © It provides services to user threads for background supporting tasks. It has no role in life than to serve user threads. © Its life depends on user threads. © It is a low priority thread. Why JVM terminates the daemon thread if there is no user thread? The sole purpose of the daemon thread is that it provides services to user thread for background supporting task. If there is no user thread, why should JVM keep running this thread. That is why JVM terminates the daemon thread if there is no user thread.
