blocking the main() thread ( keeping it alive) til the background thread completes

[Asif Kadiwala]

Hi all,

I want to block the main thread(keeping) it alive till the another (b/g) thead completes its execution, I want this scenario because my futher operations in the main() thread depends on the results of the b/g tread. I used the wait() in the main thread and notify in the another but could not solve my problem.

public static void main(String[] str) {

xxxx
xxxx
Thread t;
wait();
yyyy;
yyyy;
}

here all "yyyy" depends on the result of Thread t. So I want to block the main thread there.

Is there any way to accomplish this?? Thanks in advance.


Regards,

Asif

join() is the way to go.

TellTheDetails. Saying "could not solve" and "does not work" does not help. Show us the code that did not work.
