How to pass an argument to a C++ Thread?

Question

C++ / C#

POSIX Thread has a pthread_create function that is passed a pointer to a function and arguments to that function.
How does this happen in C++ Thread?
I have a vector.
vector<thread> threads;
I need to pass a function and parameters in a loop, something like this:

for (int i = 0; i < NUM_THREAD; i++)
{
        threads.push_back(std::thread(func, (void*)param));
}

But for some reason the compiler swears at this code :(

Answer 1

std::vector<std::thread> thread_pool;

void foo(int i) {
  // do...
}

int main() {
  thread_pool.push_back(std::thread(foo, 5));

  return 0;
}

Answer 2

You can also create a thread like this
std::thread([] {
// your code here
});
And even so
std::thread([param] { // capture by value
foo(param);
});

Answer 3

The types of parameters passed to the std::thread constructor must be compatible with the types of parameters that func takes. In addition, the problem may not be in the parameter, but in an attempt to copy std::thread into a vector (try wrapping it in std::move). You should see for yourself and write here how exactly the compiler swears.
