But how do I make sure MyCode2 runs in this thread that I will create in CClass2 as it gets instantiated?

Also, I don't want MyCode2 to run until the message is received

<br />
void CClass2::InitThread()<br />
{<br />
CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE) MyRoutine, NULL, 0, &hThread); <br />

MSG msg;<br />

Not quite. I was wondering how to "attach" MyCode2 to the new thread. If I just wrote a code for MyCode2 and just called it, it would run in the default thread and the not the one I created anew, right?

I've done:


void CClass2::InitThread()
{
CreateThread(NULL, 0, (LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE) MyRoutine, NULL, 0, &hThread);
}

It seems to work, but it is a scary thought that MyRoutine is running continuously looking for messages...
