bool joinable() const noexcept;
(since C++20)

Checks if the std::jthread object identifies an active thread of execution. Specifically, returns true if get_id() != std::jthread::id(). So a default constructed jthread is not joinable.

A thread that has finished executing code, but has not yet been joined is still considered an active thread of execution and is therefore joinable.

[edit] Parameters

(none)

[edit] Return value

true if the std::jthread object identifies an active thread of execution, false otherwise.

[edit] Example

Run this code
#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
#include <thread>
using namespace std::chrono_literals;
 
void foo()
{
 std::this_thread::sleep_for (500ms);
}
 
int main()
{
 std::cout << std::boolalpha ;
 
 std::jthread t;
 std::cout << "before starting, joinable: " << t.joinable() << '\n';
 
 t = std::jthread {foo};
 std::cout << "after starting, joinable: " << t.joinable() << '\n';
 
 t.join();
 std::cout << "after joining, joinable: " << t.joinable() << '\n';
 
 t = std::jthread {foo};
 t.detach();
 std::cout << "after detaching, joinable: " << t.joinable() << '\n';
 
}

Output:

before starting, joinable: false
after starting, joinable: true
after joining, joinable: false
after detaching, joinable: false
