Hi

I am trying to use _beginthread within VC++6 .

I included process.h but I get
"error C2065: '_beginthread' : undeclared identifier"

Do you have any suggestions?

c2664 beginthread

Hi alzomor,
please checkout for these:

Code: 
1) Routine Required Header Compatibility
_beginthread <process.h> Win 95, Win NT
_beginthreadex <process.h> Win 95, Win NT

Libraries:
LIBCMT.LIB Multithread static library, retail version
MSVCRT.LIB Import library for MSVCRT.DLL, retail version

Code: 
2) under project tab click settings and select c/c++, and select code
generation. and under "Use run-time library:" select "Multithreaded dll/
debug multithreaded Dll"

cheers....

_beginthread undeclared identifier

Thanks sinu_gowde

but now I get another error

error C2664: '_beginthread' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'int (void)' to 'void (__cdecl *)(void *)'

import _beginthreadex vc++ 6.0

Hi alzomor,

Code: 
You are attempting to pass a pointer to member function to
beginthread.  This doesn't work because pointers to member functions
are not the same thing as pointers to functions.
Code: 
the error tells you:
you gave me a 'void (int*)' parameter but I want a 'void (__cdecl*)(void*)'
parameter.

It means that you declared your function as you stated:
void Function(int *var);

but it has to be:
void __cdecl Function(void* var);    // __cdecl added and int* became void*

Try this out...
cheers...
