/**
 * "Notification of a new running thread in the target VM. The new
 * thread can be the result of a call to {@link java.lang.Thread#start} or
 * the result of attaching a new thread to the VM though JNI. The
 * notification is generated by the new thread some time before its
 * execution starts. Because of this timing, it is possible to receive
 * other events for the thread before this event is received. (Notably,
 * Method Entry Events and Method Exit Events might occur during thread
 * initialization. It is also possible for the VirtualMachine AllThreads
 * command to return a thread before its thread start event is received.
 *
 * <p>Note that this event gives no information about the creation of the
 * thread object which may have happened much earlier, depending on the
 * VM being debugged." -- JDWP 1.4.2
