THRD_JOIN(3C) Standard C Library Functions THRD_JOIN(3C)

thrd_joinwait for thread termination

#include <threads.h>

int
thrd_join(thrd_t thrd, int *res);

The () function suspends the execution of the current thread and waits for the thread indicated by thrd to terminate and stores the exit status, as set by a call to thrd_exit(3C), for that thread in res, if res is non-null. The thrd argument must be a member of the current process and it cannot be detached. If thrd has already terminated and another caller has not called thrd_join() then the exit status will be returned to the caller without blocking execution of the thread.

If multiple threads call () on the same thread, then both will be suspended until that thread terminates; however, only one thread will return successfully and obtain the actual status and the other will instead return with an error.

For additional information on the thread joining interfaces supported by the system, see pthread_join(3C) and thr_join(3C).

Upon successful completion, the thrd_join() function returns and if res is a non-null pointer, it will be filled in with the exit status of thrd. If an error occurs, will be returned.
