I have a fixed thread pool that I submit tasks to (limited to 5 threads). How can I find out which one of those 5 threads executes my task (something like "thread #3 of 5 is doing this task")?

ExecutorService taskExecutor = Executors.newFixedThreadPool(5);

//in infinite loop:
taskExecutor.execute(new MyTask());
....

private class MyTask implements Runnable {
    public void run() {
        logger.debug("Thread # XXX is doing this task");//how to get thread id?
    }
}
executors executorservice threadpool multithreading java

There is the way of current thread getting:

Thread t = Thread.currentThread();

After you have got Thread class object (t) you are able to get information you need using Thread class methods.

Thread ID gettting:

long tId = t.getId(); // e.g. 14291

Thread name gettting: 

String tName = t.getName(); // e.g. "pool-29-thread-7"
