Re: [Boost-users] Member function as a thread function

Hi,

I've had a good search on the mailing list and while some posts have got close to my problem and given me a few glues, my code does't quite work the way I want it to.

My goal is to have a (non-static) class member function run in a child thread + passing a parameter to it. The code I've got at the moment goes something like this:

void MyClass::spawn_threads() { for ( int ii = 0; ii < num_threads; ++ii) { threadGroup.create_thread( boost::bind( ChildThreadFunc, _1, ii));

You need threadGroup.create_thread( boost::bind( &MyClass::ChildThreadFunc, this, ii ) ); here.

} }

void MyClass::ChildThreadFunc( int &threadNumber) { // Does some work }
