When exactly is the thread created? Is is created

Summary:  refman: 8.91 Thread Class Reference:

Original Submission:  The reference manual says:

"Every thread of execution in an application is created by
 deriving a unique class from the Thread class and by
 implementing the Run method. base class used to derive all
 threads of execution."

This is IMHO wrong. Since you have at compile time a
fixed number of classes you could only get a fixed number
of threads. This is not the case (or?). AFAICS a thread
is created each time a run method is executed after a
derived class has been instanciated.

 Um, yes it seems that the explanation may be a bit confusing.

 Do you agree with replacing:

"by deriving a unique class from the Thread class and by
implementing the Run method."

with

"by instantiating an object of a class derived from the
Thread class. Classes derived from Thread must implement
the method run, which specifies the code of the thread."
