The behavior changed in BOOST_THREAD_VERSION 3 (which is default in boost 1.77). Are you sure detach() and join() do not help?

Can you provide a call stack?

Hi all,

I had been using an old boost system and boost thread lib for a couple of years 
without upgrading it since approx. 2014. With this old lib the following 
(simplified) code works fine on OSX:

#include "test.h"

test::test() {
     boost::thread::attributes attrs;

     /// START TRACEROUTE THREAD
     #if defined(BOOST_THREAD_PLATFORM_WIN32)
         res =
         SetThreadPriority(attrs.native_handle(), THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL);
     #elif defined(BOOST_THREAD_PLATFORM_PTHREAD)
         pthread_attr_setschedpolicy(attrs.native_handle(), SCHED_FIFO);
     #endif
     tracerouteThread = boost::thread(
         attrs, boost::bind(&test::performTraceroute, this));
}

void test::performTraceroute() {
     cout << "START TRACEROUTE" << endl;

     string exec = "";
     cout << "DO FURTHER STUFF BUT THIS IS JUST A DEMO ..." << endl;
     cout << "THREAD OVER" << endl;
}

Using the current boost 1_77 still does execute the thread but then it crashes 
within the destructor. Adding

tracerouteThread.join() or .detach() after launching the thread does not help 
either.

Can anyone help how to resolve this issue ?

Thanks a lot in advance,
best

Alex
