Can't compile thread

[BoudewijnEctor]

Hi there, I've downloaded a tutorial from thecodeproject about tcp servers, and it contains the following code: int _tmain(int argc, TCHAR* argv[], TCHAR* envp[]) { int nRetCode = 0; cout << "Press ESCAPE to terminate program\r\n"; AfxBeginThread(ServerThread,0); while(_getch()!=27); return nRetCode; } and this UINT ServerThread(LPVOID pParam) { //lots of other code return 0; } I've copied the code into a neat console app with mfc functionality, but this isn't compiling. How is this possible?

Have you defined UINT ServerThread(LPVOID pParam) before the call to AfxBeginThread? Michael 'Logic, my dear Zoe, merely enables one to be wrong with authority.' - The Doctor: The Wheel in Space

Do I hvae to define ServerThread before it's call (I'm not used to that)? I'll try it, and if it works thank you a lot!!!:-D
