Thread::GetId() returning 0 [message #50148]

Hi,

in a MT app I try to use the Thread::GetId() function to check if I'm inside a particular thread,
but I always get 0 as result.
Am I missing something ? The thread is started correctly and also running.

Ciao

Partial reply to myself... I used Start instead of Run, and the thread was detached from variable.
But now, I'm using Thread::GetCurrentId() which should return the Id of calling thread, but returns instead a very big number which has probably nothing to do with it.

How can I check if I'm inside a required thread ? (same as IsMainThread, but something like myThread.Inside())

Ciao

OS? Anyway the implementation is really straightforward, so I do not think there should be a bug there...

What about storing the thread id into thread_local variable at the start of the thread and then test if your GetCurrentId is the same?

Thank you, already solved... OS is Linux, but I guess it was my mistake, using = on IDs instead of pthread_equal.

Well, AFAIK pthread_equal should actually only make portable the code for unlikely case when pthread_t is structure. Are you sure it is the issue?

I am asking because this is really weird.... I expect == to work.
