It would be of enormous help if you would create a minimal script just 
like the above for your situation. What does it mean, runs in a thread? 
How do you achieve that from Jython?

Well usually you can pass messages between the threads, wait for 
termination etc. I've got no experience with threading in Jython; 
however this site
http://www.jython.org/jythonbook/en/1.0/Concurrency.html
suggests that there is a large number of primitives available to do that.

Concerning "Resume", what do you expect: A) starting afresh from the 
beginning or B) continue the execution at the point where the exception 
was thrown? Because A) is/should be  easy, B) could be impossible
