Yield
The Yield function is obsolete. This function is provided only for compatibility with
16-bit versions of Windows. In the Win32-based application programming interface
(API), this function does nothing.
Threads that contain windows should use the DispatchMessage, PeekMessage, or TranslateMessage functions. The message-loop functions handle message synchronization properly
and yield at the appropriate times.
Threads that do not contain windows should use the Sleep function with a sleep time of zero milliseconds to give up the remainder of
their current time slice.
Threads that create a process can use WaitForInputIdle to wait until the new process has finished its initialization.
