Defining the functions globally works for some cases, but for this particular application I really need the scope limited to a single class instance. (The code in question uses POSIX threads, so simply adding "[CLASS]::" won't work as far as I know.) Thanks, Ben Back to top Alf P.

Can you give an example? -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is it such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?

If you want the function to be only in the scope of your class then put it in the anonymous namespace of the compilation unit of the class (the .cpp file). I'm not 100% sure what you are actually asking though.
