 * An instance of {@code ThreadDeath} is thrown in the victim thread

 *

 * <p>An application should catch instances of this class only if it

 * must clean up after being terminated asynchronously.  If

 * {@code ThreadDeath} is caught by a method, it is important that it

 * be rethrown so that the thread actually dies.

 *

 * <p>The {@linkplain ThreadGroup#uncaughtException top-level error

 * handler} does not print out a message if {@code ThreadDeath} is

 * never caught.

 *

 * <p>The class {@code ThreadDeath} is specifically a subclass of

 * {@code Error} rather than {@code Exception}, even though it is a

 * "normal occurrence", because many applications catch all

 * occurrences of {@code Exception} and then discard the exception.
