pthread_create(&ID, NULL, ***AC++MemberFunction***, NULL);

[Bossom, John]

simply have your class have a static member function that you use as the
mainline
instead of a friend class and do the same as your example below.

But now I cant call non-static member function of the same class from the
thread function:

c:\t\cpp\killbot\bot.cpp(124) : error C2352: 'CBot::Connect' : illegal call
of non-static member function
        c:\t\cpp\killbot\bot.h(32) : see declaration of 'Connect'

I managed to get it to work another way by having it as a global friend
function of the class, and passing a pointer to the class as the paramater:

CBot class
{

friend void* Main(void* pData);


bool OtherMemberFunction();
}

void* Main(void* pData)
{
 CBot* pBot = (CBot*)pData;

 pBot->OtherMemberFunction();
}



Suggest any better way?
