System / Re: sf :: Thread inside a class

Hah, thanks. I'll use this.

EDIT: No luck, unfortunately. Here's the updated code:

#ifndef SHAPECONTAINER_H
#define SHAPECONTAINER_H
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML/System.hpp>
class shapeContainer {
    public:
        shapeContainer ( ) : runthread ( & shapeContainer :: threadFunction , this ) { }
        shapeContainer ( );
        void setType ( int input );
        int getType ( );
        void setLocation ( int x1 , int y1 , int x2 , int y2 );
        sf :: RenderWindow * drawShape ( sf :: RenderWindow * window , sf :: Color color );
    private:
        void threadFunction ( ) { }
        int type , xl1 , xl2 , yl1 , yl2;
        sf::Thread runthread;
};
#endif

and the output:

Code: [Select]

System / Re: sf :: Thread inside a class

EDIT: It looked like a function to me, but I guess runThread is just an object.
In this case the mistake is that you can't call its constructor from inside the class.

Oh, alright. What would be a good way to integrate a sf::Thread into a class then? I have a class for animated shapes, and each shape requires a thread to loop it's animation.

System / Re: sf :: Thread inside a class

The & symbol there doesn't make sense in a function declaration (at least not when putting it front).

Did you want the runThread function to take a pointer?
In this case it should be: "sf :: Thread runThread  ( shapeContainer :: threadFunction * ) "

If you wanted it to take a reference then the & should be where the * is in the above line.

I tried this:

#ifndef SHAPECONTAINER_H
#define SHAPECONTAINER_H
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML/System.hpp>
class shapeContainer {
    void threadFunction ( void * UserData );
    sf :: Thread runThread ( shapeContainer :: threadFunction * );
 

which resulted in this:

Code: [Select]

./shapecontainer.h:7: error: ‘shapeContainer::threadFunction’ is not a type

./shapecontainer.h:7: error: ‘shapeContainer::threadFunction’ is not a type

System / sf :: Thread inside a class

« on: May 13, 2012, 09:28:29 pm »

Hi everyone. I'm new to SFML and self-taught so be nice . Anyways, I'm having some difficulties putting a sf::Thread inside of a class. This is my code:

//file: shapecontainer.h
#ifndef SHAPECONTAINER_H
#define SHAPECONTAINER_H
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML/System.hpp>
class shapeContainer {
    void threadFunction ( void * UserData );
    sf :: Thread runThread ( & shapeContainer :: threadFunction );
    private:
        int type , xl1 , xl2 , yl1 , yl2;
    public:
        shapeContainer ( );
        void setType ( int input );
        int getType ( );
        void setLocation ( int x1 , int y1 , int x2 , int y2 );
        sf :: RenderWindow * drawShape ( sf :: RenderWindow * window , sf :: Color color );
};
#endif
//file: shapecontainer.cpp (trimmed)
#include <iostream>
#include "shapecontainer.h"
#include "gamewindow.h"
shapeContainer :: shapeContainer ( ) {
}
void shapeContainer :: threadFunction ( void * UserData ) {
    std :: cout << "test\n";
}
 

And the compiler error:

Code: [Select]

In file included from ./main.cpp:2:
./shapecontainer.h:7: error: expected identifier before ‘&’ token
./shapecontainer.h:7: error: expected ‘,’ or ‘...’
