Utilizing threads [message #1181981]

I have attempted to utilize concurrency.

*Here is the error I received:
"Type 'thread' could not be resolved"

*Here is the code I have:

#include <iostream>
#include <thread>

using namespace std;

void p1(){
	cout<<"process 1 is processing"<<endl;
}

int main() {
	thread t1(p1);
	return 0;
}

*Some History:
I already solved a previous issue during compilation with help of another post by adding "-std=gnu++11" to the following:
Properties->C/C++ Build->Settings->GCC C++ compiler->Miscellaneous->Other Flags

* I can see the header file "thread" in the include file paths.

*Eclipse Platform

Version: 3.8.1

The problem is actually the g++ compiler, issue already resolved at another website (I have not the privileges to post URL's)

The solution is to use the clang++ compiler in the basic terminal.

Ok update on my attempt at multithreading:

1. clang++ compiler works with threads in the terminal
2. g++ compiler does not work with threads in the terminal

3. clang++, with Eclipse CDT does not work with threads
4. g++, with Eclipse CDT does not work with threads

perhaps some setting, flag, or path is wrong within Eclipse?
