[Gumstix-users] C++ and threading ?

[kris d. <t_...@ya...>]

Hi, 

I want to start a thread within a class :

class protocol
{
private:
   void* thread(void* arg);

public:
   void run(void);
}

void protocol::run(void)
{
  [...]
   pthread_create(id, NULL, &thread, NULL);
}

As I can see, G++ tells me that I can't do that...  If
I change the &thread for (void(*) void*)
&protocol::thread I receive some other errors...  So I
think I can't call pthread_create within a class.  Am
I right ? Is there any workaround ?

Thank you
