 Operations
jthread::join
 Stop token handling
 Non-member functions
void join();
 
 (since C++20) 
Blocks the current thread until the thread identified by *this finishes its execution.
The completion of the thread identified by *this synchronizes with the corresponding successful return from join(). 
No synchronization is performed on *this itself. Concurrently calling join() on the same jthread object from multiple threads constitutes a data race that results in undefined behavior.
Contents
[edit] Parameters
(none)
[edit] Return value
(none)
[edit] Postconditions
joinable() is false.
[edit] Exceptions
std::system_error if an error occurs.
[edit] Error conditions
- resource_deadlock_would_occur if this->get_id() == std::this_thread::get_id () (deadlock detected).
- no_such_process if the thread is not valid.
- invalid_argument if joinable() is false.
[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <chrono> #include <iostream> #include <thread> void foo() { // simulate expensive operation std::this_thread::sleep_for (std::chrono::seconds (1)); } void bar() { // simulate expensive operation std::this_thread::sleep_for (std::chrono::seconds (1)); } int main() { std::cout << "starting first helper...\n"; std::jthread helper1(foo); std::cout << "starting second helper...\n"; std::jthread helper2(bar); std::cout << "waiting for helpers to finish..." << std::endl ; helper1.join(); helper2.join(); std::cout << "done!\n"; }
Output:
starting first helper... starting second helper... waiting for helpers to finish... done!
