Define thread in C++
- by Vsevywniy
How do I start a thread using _beginthreadex(), making it execute void myFunction(wchar_t *param);? I try to use this:
_beginthread(NULL, 0, myFunction, L"someParam", 0, &ThreadID);
but there is compilation error:
error C2664: 'beginthreadex' : cannot convert parameter 3 from 'void (_cdecl *)(wchar_t *)' to 'unsigned int (__stdcall *)(void *)'.
How I can resolve this error? I seem able to do _beginthread((void(*)(void*))myFunction, 0 , (void *)L"someParam");. But for _beginthreadex() these casts don't seem to work. What do
I need to do?
