One difference that I am aware of is wait needs to be used in synchronized method or block whereas join can come right after start().
Can join be used to act as wait ? If yes, under what conditions ?
The join() method is used to wait for a thread to complete execution, and the wait() method is used to wait for a notification to be sent on an object. The two conditions are pretty distinctive.
