how to create thread to exec member fn of a class

["Gaurav Priyolkar" <pgaurav@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Is it possible to create a thread to execute the member function of a class?

pthread_create(&tid, NULL, A.x, (void*) arg);

on compilation results in the warning:

warning: converting from 'void*(A::*)(void*)' to 'void*(*)(void*)'

Although the program runs and thread is created, how to get rid of this
warning?

Summing up, how to type cast a pointer to a member function of a
class to a pointer to a global function?
