New subject: [Boost] Is their any conflicts between boost::thread (and bind...) with inherited methods ?

9 Jul 2008

      Is their any probleme with boost::thread and inherited functions ?

Here is an example of what doesn't work to me :

Class A {
public:
makeWork() { runThat(); } ;

protected:
virtual runThat(void);
} //A

Class B : public A {
public :
init() { boost::thread(makeWork); }; //v1
init() { boost::thread(boost::bind(B::makeWork)); }; //v2

private :
runThat(void) { printf("foo"); };
}

No way, once makeWork never run, or with boost::bind, boost::ref,
boost::function... I have still errors (do I need to post the errors... ?)

That why befor posting any error log, I ask if there are known problems with
inheritage  and boost::thread ?

Of course I know how to use boost::thread and boost::bind, for example if I
had this to B, it works

Class B : public A {
...
public :
init2() { boost::thread(foo); };

private :
foo(void) { printf("foo"); };
...
}

So what ???

In fact, in the real case, B inherit from another class one of my own
invention : Singleton<CLASS> no need to explain what it does...   maybe the
"1 object only" is a problem for boost ?

PS : the docs have very few complete examples, do you preview to extend it ?
(usage of thread, bind, function, ref in the same example please) monolithic
examples are OK to understand the principle, but not to understand complex
usages...
