The WAIT WHILE command allows you to suspend the execution of a thread until the indicated condition becomes FALSE. In other words, the expression is evaluated and, if TRUE, the execution will be suspended to send another scheduled thread to execute. If it becomes FALSE, the execution of this thread will continue.
