C++ std::thread “Attempt to use a deleted function”

Question

Here\'s the relevant code and the relevant error, I\'m not really sure what to make of it.

Breaker::Thread::Thread(std::string name, std::string desc, void*          


        

Answer 1

I think the problem is the declaration of the parameter func. It is declared as a void pointer instead of a pointer to a function returning void.

Instead of,

Breaker::Thread::Thread(std::string name, std::string desc, void* func)

I think you mean,

Breaker::Thread::Thread(std::string name, std::string desc, void (*func) ())

Note, loop must be a static member for this to work.

Additionally, you might want to consider using std::function. It's a much more modern and cleaner interface than using void pointers.

Breaker::Thread::Thread(std::string name, std::string desc, std::function<void()> func)
