Creating Thread

Hi,
I'm trying to create a thread and pass to it a metadb_handle_ptr:
Code: [Select]
virtual void on_playback_new_track(metadb_handle_ptr p_track) {
            
        if(cfg_zw_enabled)        
        {            
            if(hThread)            
                WaitForSingleObject(hThread, INFINITE);
            hThread = CreateThread(NULL, 0, ThreadProc, p_track, 0, &dwThreadId);            
        }

But im always get an error saying "can't convert to "LPVOID" from "metadb_handle_ptr". I tried casting and even p_track.get_ptr() but i get nothing. Can anyone help me ?

How about a cast in combination with get_ptr()?

Code: [Select]
hThread = CreateThread(NULL, 0, ThreadProc,
  reinterpret_cast<void*>(p_track.get_ptr()), 0, &dwThreadId);


Sorry, I'm not too familiar with how CreateThread works (I'm more of a _beginthreadex person).
