Segmentation fault on TCP server.

jstechg

I have developed a server in C ++ and a client that connects to it.

I run it on a PC with linux.

When we run the server and a client is connected to it, a
Segmentation fault on the server, specifically, on the line:
sClient = ((struct ThreadArgs *) threadArgs) -> sClient;

Attached is the source code of the server:

ServerTCP.h

ifndef SERVER_TCP

define SERVER_TCP

include <stdio.h>

include <sys/socket.h>

include <arpa/inet.h>

include <stdlib.h>

int sClient;
};

typedef void* (*THREAD_FUNC_PTR)(void *);

class ServerTCP
{

int sPort;

public:
ServerTCP(unsigned int port);
void *ThreadMain(void *threadArgs);
void waitConnections();
