:mrdocs:

Suspend execution of the current thread until the thread referred to by the specified `threadHandle` terminates, and reclaim any system resources associated with `threadHandle`. Return 0 on success, and a non‐zero value otherwise. If the optionally specified `status` is not 0, load into `*status` the value returned by the function supplied at the creation of the thread identified by `threadHandle`. The behavior is undefined unless `threadHandle` was obtained by a call to `create`.
