    Declaration

    Source position: classesh.inc line 2550

    public 
function TThread.WaitFor : Integer;

    Description

    WaitFor waits for the thread to terminate, and returns the exit status. Note that when executed in the main thread, this method calls CheckSynchronize, this is done to avoid deadlocks: if the thread is waiting for a synchronize, then the synchronize methods will be executed and then the WaitFor will return.
