Instance Method Details
#add(thread) ⇒ thgrp
Adds the given thread
to this group, removing it from any other group to which it may have previously been a member.
puts "Initial group is #{ThreadGroup::Default.list}"

This will produce:

#enclose ⇒ thgrp
Prevents threads from being added to or removed from the receiving ThreadGroup
.
New threads can still be started in an enclosed ThreadGroup
.
