static void thread cannot access class members

[LuckyIsDog]

I have a thread inside a class but it requires the thread to be declared static.

And with it being static, it cannot access class member functions.


How can I access the members?

Can I send a this pointer in pthread_create?
And how can I accomplish this?

This covers it in considerable detail.

Sorry. I'm not using boost thread. Is there a pthread example?

Edit: Got it! Passed in the fourth argument (Class*)this
Then just retrieved that value
