Nice, this is what I wanted to know. Now it's apparent it's (and will be) possible to use pure pthreads from C without EFL thread-wrappers under the condition the programmer passes explicitly serialized messages (using thread-safe serializing C functions) to those thread-unsafe C functions. > My intention with Edje Lua is to make that transparent to Lua scripts.
