C++: Creating new thread using pthread_create, to run a class member function

Question

I have the following class:

class A
{
    private:
        int starter()
        {
             //TO_DO: pthread_create()
        }

        void* threadStar         


        

Answer 1

Do you have a reason for using pthreads? c++11 is here, why not just use that:

#include 
#include 

void doWork()
{
   while(true) 
   {
      // Do some work;
      sleep(1); // Rest
      std::cout << "hi from worker." << std::endl;
   }
}

int main(int, char**)
{

  std::thread worker(&doWork);
  std::cout << "hello from main thread, the worker thread is busy." << std::endl;
  worker.join();

  return 0;
}
