Help!cannot convert parameter again
Hello.I've read the FAQ about the "cannot convert parameter" problem.However,I still can't figure out what's wrong with my program.
Here is the code:
void BounceProc( char * MyID );
void main()
{
_beginthread(BounceProc, 0, &ThreadNr );
}
void BounceProc( char *MyID)
{
......
}
And the compiler keeps telling me this:
error C2664: '_beginthread' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'void (char *)' to 'void (__cdecl *)(void *)'
None of the functions with this name in scope match the target type
There is no class used in my program;It's just C style.So I really don't know what to do.
Can you help me out?Thanks a lot.

That FAQ certainly gives the answer, but it doesn't exactly jump out at you ;)
Your thread's signature is wrong. _beginthread wants a void (__cdecl *)(void *), so your Bounce function should be defined like this:
void __cdecl Bounce(LPVOID pVoid)
{
char* MyID = (char*) pVoid;
...
}
You might not need the __cdecl
