System / Providing class member function to thread?

Hmm, I wouldn't know how to do that right away, not that experienced with C++. I will look at the tutorials again and try to figure out a good solution. Thanks for the tip.

EDIT: Implemented it in that way now. Works great and is a pretty solution. Thanks.

OK, I see. I solved it by having a wrapper function with an infinity loop that calls the class member function instead.

System / Providing class member function to thread?

I want to run a class member function in a separate thread. Is there any straightforward way of doing this? An hour of googling and trial-and-error experimenting hasn't helped me in this case. It is obviously not as easy as

Code: [Select]

sf::Thread Thread(&MyObject.MyFunction);.

I tried things like

Code: [Select]

typedef void (SomeClass::*fptr)();
fptr ptrMyFunction;
ptrMyFunction = &SomeClass::MyFunction;

to get the member function pointer, but it doesn't seem to work.
