class method

Thread.fork

(*untyped args) -> untyped

Thread.start([args]*) {|args| block } → thread

Thread.fork([args]*) {|args| block } → thread

static VALUE
thread_start(VALUE klass, VALUE args)
{
    struct thread_create_params params = {
        .type = thread_invoke_type_proc,
        .args = args,
        .proc = rb_block_proc(),
    };
    return thread_create_core(rb_thread_alloc(klass), &params);
}

Basically the same as ::new. However, if class Thread is subclassed, then calling start in that subclass will not invoke the subclass’s initialize method.
