Description

It would be great to be able to configure name for threads used by HTTP Jetty transport. In current implementation of Jetty transport, threads that handle requests have names like "qtp-xxxxx".
When you have multiple CXF Jetty engines configured in the same JVM, thread names related to different CXF Jetty engines are not distinguishable and this complicates debugging via Jconsole/JStack or by inspecting log files. For example:
"qtp4563453246-43 Selector0" prio=... tid=…
qtp1453691733-34 Selector0" prio=… tid=…
It would be great to have some like:
workorder_4563453246-43
stockprice_1453691733-34

it’s possible to implement by passing additional parameter to Jetty QueuedThreadPool in the same way as other threading parameters are passed.
