My apologies if this message appeared twice. I sent a previous one while I was not a member and from the mail archive it seems that it did not reach the list. My questions is:
When creating a new thread, a function pointer to the thread code is usually provided together with some arguments to the function. I was wondering how often are some of these arguments function pointers. Does that happen in actual applications? Similarly, if a thread returns a value when it terminates, how often is that value a function pointer in practice? Thanks!
