Abstract
A thread execution analyzer analyzes blocking events of threads in a program using execution data and callstacks collected at the blocking events. The thread execution analyzer attempts to identify an application programming interface (API) responsible for each blocking event and provides blocking analysis information to a user. The blocking analysis information may be used by a developer of the program to understand the causes of blocking events that occur for threads of the program.
