    - #### getThreadCpuTime

          long[] getThreadCpuTime​(long[] ids)

      Returns the total CPU time for each thread whose ID is in the input array `ids` in nanoseconds. The returned values are of nanoseconds precision but not necessarily nanoseconds accuracy.

      This method is equivalent to calling the `ThreadMXBean.getThreadCpuTime(long)` method for each thread ID in the input array `ids` and setting the returned value in the corresponding element of the returned array.

      Parameters:
        `ids` - an array of thread IDs.
      Returns:
        an array of long values, each of which is the amount of CPU time the thread whose ID is in the corresponding element of the input array of IDs has used, if the thread of a specified ID exists, the thread is alive, and CPU time measurement is enabled; `-1` otherwise.
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if `ids` is `null`
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if any element in the input array `ids` is `<=` `0`.
        `UnsupportedOperationException` - if the Java virtual machine implementation does not support CPU time measurement.
      See Also:
        `ThreadMXBean.getThreadCpuTime(long)`, `getThreadUserTime(long[])`, `ThreadMXBean.isThreadCpuTimeSupported()`, `ThreadMXBean.isThreadCpuTimeEnabled()`, `ThreadMXBean.setThreadCpuTimeEnabled(boolean)`

    - #### getThreadUserTime

          long[] getThreadUserTime​(long[] ids)

      Returns the CPU time that each thread whose ID is in the input array `ids` has executed in user mode in nanoseconds. The returned values are of nanoseconds precision but not necessarily nanoseconds accuracy.

      This method is equivalent to calling the `ThreadMXBean.getThreadUserTime(long)` method for each thread ID in the input array `ids` and setting the returned value in the corresponding element of the returned array.

      Parameters:
        `ids` - an array of thread IDs.
      Returns:
        an array of long values, each of which is the amount of user mode CPU time the thread whose ID is in the corresponding element of the input array of IDs has used, if the thread of a specified ID exists, the thread is alive, and CPU time measurement is enabled; `-1` otherwise.
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if `ids` is `null`
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if any element in the input array `ids` is `<=` `0`.
        `UnsupportedOperationException` - if the Java virtual machine implementation does not support CPU time measurement.
      See Also:
        `ThreadMXBean.getThreadUserTime(long)`, `getThreadCpuTime(long[])`, `ThreadMXBean.isThreadCpuTimeSupported()`, `ThreadMXBean.isThreadCpuTimeEnabled()`, `ThreadMXBean.setThreadCpuTimeEnabled(boolean)`

    - #### getThreadAllocatedBytes

          long getThreadAllocatedBytes​(long id)

      Returns an approximation of the total amount of memory, in bytes, allocated in heap memory for the thread of the specified ID. The returned value is an approximation because some Java virtual machine implementations may use object allocation mechanisms that result in a delay between the time an object is allocated and the time its size is recorded.

      If the thread of the specified ID is not alive or does not exist, this method returns `-1`. If thread memory allocation measurement is disabled, this method returns `-1`. A thread is alive if it has been started and has not yet died.

      If thread memory allocation measurement is enabled after the thread has started, the Java virtual machine implementation may choose any time up to and including the time that the capability is enabled as the point where thread memory allocation measurement starts.

      Parameters:
        `id` - the thread ID of a thread
      Returns:
        an approximation of the total memory allocated, in bytes, in heap memory for a thread of the specified ID if the thread of the specified ID exists, the thread is alive, and thread memory allocation measurement is enabled; `-1` otherwise.
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if `id` `<=` `0`.
        `UnsupportedOperationException` - if the Java virtual machine implementation does not support thread memory allocation measurement.
      See Also:
        `isThreadAllocatedMemorySupported()`, `isThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled()`, `setThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled(boolean)`

    - #### getThreadAllocatedBytes

          long[] getThreadAllocatedBytes​(long[] ids)

      Returns an approximation of the total amount of memory, in bytes, allocated in heap memory for each thread whose ID is in the input array `ids`. The returned values are approximations because some Java virtual machine implementations may use object allocation mechanisms that result in a delay between the time an object is allocated and the time its size is recorded.

      This method is equivalent to calling the `getThreadAllocatedBytes(long)` method for each thread ID in the input array `ids` and setting the returned value in the corresponding element of the returned array.

      Parameters:
        `ids` - an array of thread IDs.
      Returns:
        an array of long values, each of which is an approximation of the total memory allocated, in bytes, in heap memory for the thread whose ID is in the corresponding element of the input array of IDs.
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if `ids` is `null`
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if any element in the input array `ids` is `<=` `0`.
        `UnsupportedOperationException` - if the Java virtual machine implementation does not support thread memory allocation measurement.
      See Also:
        `getThreadAllocatedBytes(long)`, `isThreadAllocatedMemorySupported()`, `isThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled()`, `setThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled(boolean)`

    - #### isThreadAllocatedMemorySupported

          boolean isThreadAllocatedMemorySupported()

      Tests if the Java virtual machine implementation supports thread memory allocation measurement.
      Returns:
        `true` if the Java virtual machine implementation supports thread memory allocation measurement; `false` otherwise.

    - #### isThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled

          boolean isThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled()

      Tests if thread memory allocation measurement is enabled.
      Returns:
        `true` if thread memory allocation measurement is enabled; `false` otherwise.
      Throws:
        `UnsupportedOperationException` - if the Java virtual machine does not support thread memory allocation measurement.
      See Also:
        `isThreadAllocatedMemorySupported()`

    - #### setThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled

          void setThreadAllocatedMemoryEnabled​(boolean enable)

      Enables or disables thread memory allocation measurement. The default is platform dependent.
      Parameters:
        `enable` - `true` to enable; `false` to disable.
      Throws:
        `UnsupportedOperationException` - if the Java virtual machine does not support thread memory allocation measurement.
        `SecurityException` - if a security manager exists and the caller does not have ManagementPermission("control").

        `isThreadAllocatedMemorySupported()`
