Syntax
'Declaration
Public Function Join ( _
millisecondsTimeout As Integer _
) As Boolean
public bool Join(
int millisecondsTimeout
)
public:
bool Join(
int millisecondsTimeout
)
member Join :
millisecondsTimeout:int -> bool
public function Join(
millisecondsTimeout : int
) : boolean
Parameters
- millisecondsTimeout
Type: System. . :: . .Int32
The number of milliseconds to wait for the thread to terminate.
Return Value
Type: System. . :: . .Boolean
true if the thread has terminated; false if the thread has not terminated after the amount of time specified by the millisecondsTimeout parameter has elapsed.
Remarks
If Timeout..::..Infinite is specified for the millisecondsTimeout parameter, this method behaves identically to the Join()()()() method overload, except for the return value.
If the thread has already terminated when Join is called, the method returns immediately.
This method changes the state of the calling thread to include ThreadState..::..WaitSleepJoin. You cannot invoke Join on a thread that is in the ThreadState..::..Unstarted state.
