The equivalent function in Win32 is WaitForSingleObject(). This function allows a parent thread to wait for a child thread to complete its execution. It takes the handle of the child thread as its argument and blocks the parent thread until the child thread terminates. The other options (win32_join(), wait(), and join()) are incorrect as there is no such function in Win32.
