Please see the following thread: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-app-devel-list/2006-March/msg00310.html Optionally also: http://publibn.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixprggd/genprogc/writing_reentrant_thread_safe_code.htm#HDRA5CMFJ3B0MANU http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gdk/gdk-Threads.html http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/glib/glib-Threads.html http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/glib/glib-Threads.html#GMutex http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/glib/glib-Threads.html#GStaticMutex In short: writing multi-threaded programs requires a lot more care and knowledge than just how to start another thread. Without knowing about these concepts: don't do it! _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
