Hello, How to pass arguments to a thread? From the documentation I thought I could do this: mp_ProcessorListenerThread = new boost::thread(ProcessorListener, this); However I get the following error: 'boost::thread::thread' : no overloaded function takes 2 arguments Thanks, Jean

Hi, Here's the error I get after the code modifications: 'bind' : is not a member of 'boost' I'm compiling with boost 1.35 On 23-Aug-08, at 5:29 PM, Cory Nelson wrote:

Jean, I'm not familiar with Boost.Thread yet, but the documentation for 1.36.0 suggests you can call the thread constructor with multiple arguments as you're doing. Docs for 1.35.0 don't mention that constructor so I wonder if you're using 1.35.0 or before, but reading documentation for 1.36.0? As suggested by others, boost::bind looks like it'll help.

I'm just curious: is there some good reason you've chosen to dynamically allocate thread objects? -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
