threading problem

[hammad khan]

i'm working on a chat massenger, in my program i've written two threads as follows. i'm facing problem with there working. here is the main function of the program

int main()
{
char ipAddress[20];
getIp(ipAddress);
sf::IpAddress ip(ipAddress);
sf::TcpSocket *socket = new sf::TcpSocket;
sf::Mutex mutex;
bool done = false;

if( socket->connect(ip, 2000) == 0 )
{
cout<<"Enter online id : ";
std::getline(cin, id);
sf::Packet packet;
packet<<id;
socket->send(packet);

sf::Thread thread( &checkRequest, socket);
thread.launch();

mutex.lock();
sf::Thread thread2( &menu, socket);
thread2.launch();
mutex.unlock();
}
else
{
cout<<"Couldn't connect to the server try again later"<<endl;
}
return 0;
}

sometimes both threads work correctly but sometimes they don't work properly. i don't face any error. is there any problem regarding Operating system?

is there any problem regarding Operating system?

I don't know which one you're using, but I'd guess no.

It might help if you explain what you're trying to do rather than posting broken code and asking what's wrong with it.
