API for getting thread id & thread name such as in command PRTJVMJOB *thread

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

For JVM users and ERP (such as M3 or others), the thread id inside JVM could be internal to software or dedicated tool. In this case, to investigate job performance such as idoctor or job watcher it is impossible to search a job or tasks with the OS Thread number because it is not the same that ERP internel thread. The only way is to make prtjvmjob *thread *print every 5 or 10 secondes, then copy spool file to physical file and extract os thread id + thread name (in my case the internal thread id is stored in the thread name the same that could be seen in thread name in the print of prtjvmjob). ERP is M3 Movex V13 java edition. without the thread correspondance (os vs internal ERP) it is impossible to monitor applicatin thru system tool, job watcher, idoctor and performance explorer
