If you are hoping to use IUP on a background thread to control native UI, you should be aware that this is not safe to do on Mac, iOS, and Android and will most likely crash. And it just won't work at all in the web browser/Emscripten since JavaScript doesn't really have threads. I've seen this gotcha appear multiple times for new SDL/Windows users who design everything on a background thread and it works for them, without ever experimenting on the other platforms. Then they get incredibly mad when they finally try to port to the other platforms and find out that it will never work on a bunch of the other platforms. -Eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Iup-users mailing list Iup-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/iup-users
