Hi all,
  I am working on developing a gui for my application which runs many posix 
threads. These threads will try to update the text view by adding text. this is 
how the i have written the code 
  
  gtk_text_buffer_get_bounds(buffer,&start,&end);
   gtk_text_buffer_insert(buffer,&end,printbuffer,strlen(printbuffer));
  
  Some times i get 
  
  Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_text_layout_real_invalidate: assertion 
`layout->wrap_loop_count == 0' failed
  
  Gtk-WARNING **: Invalid text buffer iterator: either the iterator is 
uninitialized, or the characters/pixbufs/widgets in the buffer have been 
modified since the iterator was created.
  You must use marks, character numbers, or line numbers to preserve a position 
across buffer modifications.
  You can apply tags and insert marks without invalidating your iterators,
  but any mutation that affects 'indexable' buffer contents (contents that can 
be referred to by character offset)
  will invalidate all outstanding iterators
  
  After some searching i found that this due to some threading issue with gtk. 
I also used g_thread_init () and gdk_threads_init() , gdk_thread_leave and 
gdk_thread_enter as specified in the following link,
  
  http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-a.../msg00086.html
  
   this works but this slows down my updation of the MMI quite considerably 
which i dont want.
  
  Is there any other alternative for this or if some one has worked on the 
following lines before and has got it to work please let me know. Cos this is 
very urgent.
  
  Regards
  S.Suresh Stephen
