sdlWaitThread function

void sdlWaitThread(Pointer<SdlThread> thread, Pointer<Int32> status)

Wait for a thread to finish.

Threads that haven't been detached will remain until this function cleans them up. Not doing so is a resource leak.

Once a thread has been cleaned up through this function, the SDL_Thread that references it becomes invalid and should not be referenced again. As such, only one thread may call SDL_WaitThread() on another.

The return code from the thread function is placed in the area pointed to by status, if status is not NULL.

You may not wait on a thread that has been used in a call to SDL_DetachThread(). Use either that function or this one, but not both, or behavior is undefined.

It is safe to pass a NULL thread to this function; it is a no-op.

Note that the thread pointer is freed by this function and is not valid afterward.

\param thread the SDL_Thread pointer that was returned from the SDL_CreateThread() call that started this thread. \param status a pointer filled in with the value returned from the thread function by its 'return', or -1 if the thread has been detached or isn't valid, may be NULL.

\since This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
