How come when i want to create a thread in console application it's not working
but when i'm building GUI (creating empty project and create the whole window by myself) it works?!

the code goes like
Code:

void someThread ()
{
   for (int i = 0; i < 100; i ++){
      _tprintf_s(__TEXT("asd\n"));
      Sleep(100);
   }
}

int main (void)
{
   CreateThread(0,0,(LPTHREAD_START_ROUTINE)&someThread,0,0,0);
   return 0;
}

Maybe the first parameter needs to be NULL?

How about you read some stuff about threads? Obliviously the main thread is reaching its end before the other thread has done anything. It's better to know what are you doing than just copy pasting code...

EDIT: Stupid srikethru doesn't work :(

What. Why sleep? It'll just close everything after the sleep period is over. Just put a conditional loop in the main thread.
