• simply abandon the idea of using threads.

How about something like:

char *temp = new char[strlen(name) + 1];
strcpy(temp, name);
Helper::instance()->strtoken(temp, ".", token);

Why does the param char * not work but the char * thats created here?

void main( void )
{
    char *abc = "First";
    char xyz[] = "Last";
 
    abc[0] = '1';
    xyz[0] = '2';
}

Btw. I have to DELETE the char *temp afterwards, right?
