How is the debugger "thread title" derived from NSThread?

If the AppCode debugger's frames window, we can see various threads. Some have titles like "Thread-842637".

How does this title relate to the NSThread object?
Can I reproduce this title from an NSThread?

I have a list of NSThread objects, and I'd like to easily relate them back to the debugger.

Thanks for any assistance,
Troy

No, it's not related to the thread object. It's related to OSX threads. Though you can get this id via posix or low level system api:

 
#include <sys/syscall.h>

syscall(SYS_thread_selfid)


or

#include <pthread.h>

uint64_t tid;
pthread_threadid_np(NULL, &tid);
