I re-read the relevant parts of PP Advanced Topics.

And I subclassed LThread in my own class, but now I'm getting
threadProtocolErr (-619), at line 787 of LThread.cp. Which is this:

	if (inFlags & threadOption_Main)
	{
		// The user is creating the main thread.

		// This thread is handled specially, since it already exists when the
		// application starts executing.

		// we can't have a preemptive main thread, nor two main threads!
		if (inPreemptive || (sMainThread != NULL) || sInited)
			Throw_(threadProtocolErr);


Here's my code, what am I doing wrong?

#include <LThread.h>

class http : public LThread {
	public:
				http();
		
	protected:
		virtual void *		Run( void );

};



#include "http.h"

http::http()
	: LThread(	false, thread_DefaultStack, LThread::threadOption_Default, nil)
{
}

void*
http::Run( void )
{
	SysBeep(5);
	return nil;
}



UMainThread gets created in main(), right before theApp.Run() is called.
