See BrowserUk's answer. I'm not sure what's so hard about that answer that you chose to ignore it. `threads->list` is documented to only work for attached threads, so it's empty for you. Maybe you don't want to detach your threads at all?	[reply] [d/l]

I am afraid of some failure and thread dieing...can that happen? What happens if I remove ->detach()?	[reply]

Seriously, maybe you want to read the threads documentation now? Maybe you want to create some test cases to see what happens when a thread dies? Also, if you're so afraid of failure, maybe you should make your program more robust so that it only erases data when it has positively been processed?	[reply]
