I usually do something like this for that sort of problem.

boost::mutex     Mutex;
boost::condition Condition;
bool Signalled;

void Thread1() {
  MyCode::CreateThread2();
  boost::mutex::scoped_lock l(Mutex);
  Signalled = false;
  while (!Signalled)
     Condition.timed_wait(l, make500msdelay());
} // Thread1

void Thread2() {
  mutex::scoped_lock(Mutex);
  Signalled = true;
  Condition.notify_all();
} // Thread2
