Worker Thread Question!

[peter ho]

I tried to create a worker thread. However, I keep get the compile error "error C2665: 'AfxBeginThread' : none of the 2 overloads can convert parameter 1 from type 'unsigned int (__cdecl *)(void)'" Please help! many thanks! p. //I have a global Thread function: UINT connection(LPVOID pParam) { ... return 1; } //Start the worker thread AfxBeginThread(connection) { .... }

try AfxBeginThread ( connection , NULL ) ; the second param is a user data if u dont need it u can pass NULL Papa while (TRUE) Papa.WillLove ( Bebe ) ;

What's the rest of the error? It will tell you what the compiler is expecting. You can also put the cursor on AfxBeginThread() and hit F12. This will take you to the function's prototype.

Weird. Do you have connection() declared in the interface (*.h) file? AfxBeginThread() takes in as parameters more than one or even two. Kuphryn
