al_join_thread
void al_join_thread(ALLEGRO_THREAD *thread, void **ret_value)
Wait for the thread to finish executing. This implicitly calls al_set_thread_should_stop first.
If ret_value is non-NULL, the value returned by the thread function will be stored at the location pointed to by ret_value.
See also: al_set_thread_should_stop, al_get_thread_should_stop, al_destroy_thread.
Examples: ex_threads, ex_threads2
