What is CheckThread?
CheckThread provides thread safety static analysis for Java code. By adding @ThreadConfined and @ThreadSafe annotations to your Java code, CheckThread will report thread confinement violations at compile time. Detecting threading bugs at compile time allows threading issues to be caught early avoids having to deal with messy and sporadic threading bugs after an application is deployed to customers.

Who should use CheckThread?
This tool is geared towards Java developers who are working on multi-threaded applications that involve one or more thread confined API's (e.g. Swing, SWT, etc).
