The Windows superior join model? Can you please explain what do you mean by that?
You can "join" a thread more than once, from several threads, and you can do try/timed joins.
This implies that information about terminated threads "hangs around" for some amount of time in case more threads which to "join" it. Do you know what the Windows policy is regarding when the tid (or the Windows equivalent) finally becomes invalid?
There is a separate CloseHandle call, after which the handle is no longer valid.
