ThreadBase.isDaemon

bool isDaemon() @property @safe @nogc

Gets the daemon status for this thread. While the runtime will wait for all normal threads to complete before tearing down the process, daemon threads are effectively ignored and thus will not prevent the process from terminating. In effect, daemon threads will be terminated automatically by the OS when the process exits.

Returns

true if this is a daemon thread.
