From: Emil Kaffeshop Subject: Boost.thread - infinite thread and expired thread object To: boost-users@lists.boost.org Date: Friday, March 25, 2011, 7:16 PM Hello all,

I am new to the group and boost.

I have a question.

void f (void) {   while (1) {    //do thread job    } }

void start_thread () {    boost::thread t(f); }

void main (void) {   start_thread ();   pthread_exit (NULL);  }

What are consequence for the thread "f" from disappearing of thread object? Does thread specific data available? Does boost::this_thread functions available? So is there something which f needs from "t" object?

Thank you in advance!

Best Regards
