# Loqate Multithreading Sample Code in Java

## Overview

This sample code below is provided as a reference to developers that want to use the Loqate Engine in a multithreaded environment.

The `LqtMultithreadTestDriver` class is responsible for creating multiple threads.

The `LqtThreadRunner` class provides an example of the Loqate Engine instance variables and method calls suggested on a per-thread basis. The `processRecordSegment(…)` method of the `LqtThreadRunner` assumes the user wants to process different segments of the input records provided. That method may be modified depending on the customer application.

## Multithreading Java Source Code

The sample Java source code is summarized in the table below. The source code can be viewed by following the links shown in that table. The source code can also be downloaded following the link shown at the bottom of this page.
