Compiler Error C2483

  • Article

'identifier' : object with constructor or destructor cannot be declared 'thread'

This error message is obsolete in Visual Studio 2015 and later versions. In previous versions, variables declared with the thread attribute cannot be initialized with a constructor or other expression that requires run-time evaluation. A static expression is required to initialize thread data.

Example

The following sample generates C2483 in Visual Studio 2013 and earlier versions.

// C2483.cpp
// compile with: /c
__declspec(thread) struct A {
   A(){}
   ~A(){}
} aa;   // C2483 error

__declspec(thread) struct B {} b;   // OK
