Even after updating to boost 1.38 I still get this error. This is the current error that I get. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

I am working on an application that takes use of boost::thread. During the
initial method of my application I need to pass one argument to the method.
As per the api documentation for boost::thread I am using the following:

boost::thread dataThread(dparse.dataMain,instUUID);
dataThread.join();

However, when I attempt to use this, I get the following exception from my
compiler. Is there something that I am missing? I do not see how my thread
constructor is any different from the constructor in the api documentation.

Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

error: no matching function for call to ‘boost::thread::thread(<unresolved
overloaded function type>, std::string&)’
/usr/include/boost/thread/thread.hpp:38: note: candidates are:
boost::thread::thread(const boost::function0<void,
std::allocator<boost::function_base> >&)
/usr/include/boost/thread/thread.hpp:37: note:

/usr/include/boost/thread/thread.hpp:35: note:

It looks like you have an older version of Boost that
doesn't support extra arguments to the constructor.
You'll need to use Boost.Bind.

In Christ,
