Thanks Tristan, When I said "..run in the main loop.." I mean that the object must "do something" during its life. What I want to do is execute one object method (main object routine) from a timeout event, and this method could decide to fire a signal, getting special care in how many time the pack of routines used to keep inside the timeout lapse.

Be carefull not to mix up object based GSource's and object oriented GObject derivitave objects, a GSource is an event source that is either a timeout or a file descriptor watch; some have implemented ipc mechanisms with GSource or signal handleing as well. A GSource dispatches an event from the main loop. When a GObject emits a signal; the signal callbacks are executed regardless of whether there is a main loop running or not (i.e. when an object method is called that results in a signal being fired, all callbacks will have run and completed before the said function returns).
