pointer to a function

[mezzo]

I'm working on a bot framework that would allow a thread to read out certain
states (health, combat,money, etc) I call this the director_thread.
Based on that state, decide if tasks need to be added to the 'job queue'.

The jobqueue_thread is a different thread that works through a linked list (jobqueue),
each node being a job that is pending. The director_thread is allowed to
add jobs anywhere into the jobqueue, remove jobs, etc. The jobqueue_thread is desinged
to launch jobs when the previous one is done, or override the current one if the
director_thread tells to do so.

Can I put a pointer to a function as a field in a struct and cause it to be
executed when the jobqueue_thread reaches that node ?

Code: Select all

typedef BOOL (CALLBACK * Pf_FuncType)( DWORD dwParm1, LPVOID lpvParm 2 );
struct SUPER {
    Pf_FuncType  pfFunc;
};


SUPER sSuper;
sSuper.pfFunc( 1, (LPVOID)0x00400000 );

All modifications to the pointers should be done inside critical sections.
