pthread giving error: invalid conversion from ‘void* (*)(int*)’ to ‘void* (*)(void*)’
 

Hi All,
I just went to update some old code using pthreads and get the above error.The code did work in the past. I call the thread with
and the function is
can anyone advise on what I'm doing wrong please?

I'll guess the declaration is wrong/in the wrong place.

No expert on it, I've used them and each time I do so, I look it up somewhere. This example seems very fundamental and there do seem to be some minor differences between their example and the minor amount of code you've shown.

Suggest if you still have difficulties, that you post enough additional code so that we can see how you've declared Test_Thread and how you've coded TestMovement.

Thanks that link demo fixed it, now what's even odder is some other threads in the same file are declared in exactly the same way ( my original way ) and they work...

There might be somewhere a declaration of 'TestMovement' that has 'int *' parameter instead of 'void *'
