problem in threading

[kumar_a]

Hi All,

I am writing some code on "HandleServerAppContainerViewActivatedL" function.

Now I want to invoke a new thread on a worker function Test().

For this I am writing code like this...

RThread mythread;
_LIT(KThreadName, "My Thread");
const KHepaSize = 0x800;
TInt result = mythread.Create(KThreadName, (TThreadFunction)test, KDefaultStackSize,KMinHeapSize, KMinHeapSize, KHeapSize, this, EOwnerThread);
User::LeaveIfError(result);
mythread.SetPriority(EPriorityMuchMore);
mythread.Resume(); // Run the thread



and the test function is like ...

void test(TAny* aPtr){

------
}

but on compilation it says undefined test.
I tried the function like CServerAppContainerView::test...but even in this case it gives undefined test.

how can I create a thread for a user defined worker function?

Thanks

Are these global functions? If so, has the "test" function declared before the call?

Also test is a static function belonging to RTest, so try using some other name.

You can have a look at the "Transient server example - test program " in the documentation.

I tried changing the name...but the same error :(

how about checking this

[kumar_a]

the example that u have given uses the worker function that inherits from the same class....in my case I am not able to create a function like CServerAppContainerView:: function() because this is the designer class and has fixed no. of function .

Hi,

First of all I think the no of parameters passed to create function is wrong.

Secondly why are you passing "this" pointer.

Also I am not able to understand why is it that you cant make a new function part of your class. You probably wont be able to pass global function to the thread.
