Hey list,
I'm currently writing a multi threaded gtk-app, and knowing that
calling gtk_main() simultaneously from different threads is a no-go, I was
quite surprised to find that the following fragment seemed to work when being
accidentally called from a thread different from the one which originally
called gtk_main()!!
I have initialized the threading support properly before the initial
call to gtk_main() in the main thread, so I guess gdk_threads_enter()
momentarily exits the original gtk_main() - yes??? Is this really supposed to
work, or did I just get lucky???
gdk_threads_enter();
...
gtk_main();
gdk_threads_leave();
