std::jthread::joinable
From cppreference.com
| [[nodiscard]] bool joinable() const noexcept; |
(since 哋它亢++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.
Parameters
(none)
Return value
true if the jthread object identifies an active thread of execution, false otherwise.
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
