pthread question

[nothing]

Hi,

I'm having troubles setting the priority of a p thread.
I get a segmentation fault when i do following:

pthread_t *ss_tid;                              //declaration
ss_tid  = (pthread_t*)malloc(sizeof(pthread_t));//do the memory allocation
struct sched_param   param;                     //declaration
memset(&param, 0, sizeof(param));               //allocation
pthread_setschedparam(*ss_tid, SCHED_RR, &param); // HERE I GET
SEGMENTATIONFAULT

I'm not understanding, shouldn't this work just fine?
What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!
Ron

You're asking in the wrong group, this is not a C++ language question.
Try a unix or threading group.

However, the value stored in ss_tid is undefined (you malloc it, but
never set it to anything).
