    beginthread problem

    hi, im using VC++ 6 and im trying to use _beginthread

    heres the code im trying

    Code:
    _beginthread(HostServer, 0, NULL);
    and HostServer = int HostServer()

    the warning im getting is

    Code:
    warning C4113: 'int (__cdecl *)()' differs in parameter lists from 'void (__cdecl *)(void *)'
    and it seems to be making the program work wrong,
    any one got any ideas on this
    thanks

    Your function HostServer returns an int, and it shouldnt return anything. Error messages are meant to be read, not ignored, ya know?
    hello, internet!

    Don't forget that not only does it NOT return an int, it expects a void* as an argument.
