Does anybody have a simple example of an RPGLE program creating a new thread via pthread

I am trying to write an RPGLE program that becomes multi threaded by
starting new threads via pthread_create. I understand the concepts of multi
threading and the problems with static storage in RPG (I think). I just
can't get my program to work. After finally getting it to compile, whenever
I run it I get the error message - Pointer type not valid for requested
operation. This error occurs on the call to the pthread_create API.

I can post the code if it helps, but if I could see a simple example I think
I would be OK.

Thanks in advance.
