Question

I’ve searched in google, but cannot find how can I add my own function to Threadpool. I have a function with signature void MyFunction(void *param);. How I can create Threadpool and add this function for assynchronos execution. I know that exist TrySubmitThreadpoolCallback() function, but I cannot understand how to use it. I’ll be very glad to see simple example.

Answer 1

In order to be able to use TrySubmitThreadpoolCallback you should change signature of your function to

void CALLBACK MyFunction( PTP_CALLBACK_INSTANCE Instance, void* Context );

And then you can use it without problem. Remember that in windows most callbacks should have the CALLBACK in their definition, because default calling convention in C is __cdecl but in Windows API it is usually __stdcall(read it CALLBACK).
