assert(res == WAIT_OBJECT_0) might be too tight - assert(res == WAIT_OBJECT_0 || res == WAIT_ABANDONED_0) might be a better choice.

I don't know IIUC the interface, but IMO, a thread that has already finished can not be joined. Do you agree with my understanding?

Preconditions:

this->get_id()!=boost::this_thread::get_id()

Effects:

If *this refers to a thread of execution, waits for that thread of execution to complete.

Postconditions:

If *this refers to a thread of execution on entry, that thread of execution has completed. *this no longer refers to any thread of execution.

Throws:

boost::thread_interrupted if the current thread of execution is interrupted.

Notes:

join() is one of the predefined interruption points.

Moved to support until the resolution is clarified.
