It hangs because the catpure thread is at the loop function, my idea is to break that loop using breakloop over the same variable BUT from the main thread.
1- Yes, i've done some tests and looks that 0 is doing exactly the same as -1, but i've changed to -1 now.
2- The callback part works perfectly, i've just remove the contents for the test.
3- Nothing strange at the return codes of the subs.
The problem here is that I can't call breakloop to the same variable at the main thread that is looping at the capture thread and thats why it hangs at the loop function.
I've try it sharing, passing as a parameter to the thread (don't know why it makes a local copy too instead of using the same by reference), i've tried too the last 2 options but using references and found that althoug the references are being copied (as i expected) the content of the references changed too to the copied values inside the thread instead of pointinng to the original variable at the main thread.
I thought it will be easier.
