Can i call destructor from its class method?

Question

I have a Thread class like bellow

class Thread {
public:
  Thread();
  ~Thread();
  void start();
  void stop();
}

So i need to call destructor

Answer 1

Yes

delete this;

But be careful. You should not use the deleted object, this and non-static members anymore.

 

Another way is to call destructor

~Thread();

 

But the question is, why do you need call the destructor?! It's not logical. You can write a code to manage the resources in a private method and call it.
