Hi All:
It may be a simple question, but I have no idea now. So I want to post my question with you. Maybe you can help, thank you.

It is about boost thread.

I want to create a thread and pass a parameter to it. I found there are 2 ways in boost thread, they are:

using bind, like

boost::thread thrd(boost::bind(&helloworld, "Bob"));
thrd.join();

or construct a structure and do the following:

boost::thread thrd(helloworld("Bob"));
thrd.join();

It works, really, like the demo code shown. But After I run 2 threads, I found 2 thread can not run concurrently. The second thread will blocked by the first thread. If the first thread never exit, the second thread never run. It is a very funny problem. But I really do not know what happen. Does anyone know about this topic?

Thank you very much.
