[BUG] wait_for_tasks() Segmentation Faults in Conjunction with submit() about thread-pool HOT 3 CLOSED

Thanks for the bug report. Many people, including myself, are using this thread pool in a variety of complex scenarios, and have not encountered the issues you are describing. So unless you provide a minimal working example that reproduces this bug, there's nothing I can do.

Also, there's nothing wrong with C-style casts, their behavior is well-defined. I do agree that using C++ cast expressions is clearer, but I don't see why the C-style casts used in the library would lead to any bugs or ill-defined behavior.

Just FYI.

My application was frequently (but now always) crashing with a Segmentation Fault, when wait_for_tasks was invoked on a separate thread. In this case, the thread was launched using std::async(std::launch::async, my_function)

Moving the wait_for_tasks invocation to the application's main thread solved the problem for me.

Thanks for letting me know. Mixing std::async with BS::thread_pool is not recommended; instead, consider using only BS::thread_pool, or perhaps two BS::thread_pools. If you are still having issues, please open a new issue with a minimal working example and I will look into it.
