Genuine Coder's video: Java Multithreading Tutorial for Beginners 6: Thread Status and Join

In this chapter, we will talk about checking whether a thread is alive at a point and about waiting for a thread to finish. Java Thread API provides option to check whether a thread is running or not using the method ThreadObject.isAlive(). Join is used to wait a thread to finish. The join() method waits for a thread to die. It causes the currently running threads to stop executing until the thread it joins with completes its task. Join also provides a overridden method with wait time which when provided will wait for a maximum of given time for the thread to die.
