Hi,
I've recently come across https://phab.enlightenment.org/w/bob/ and I
wonder if BÖB is going to be usable in other programming languages than Lua
(e.g. pure C without Lua, in Google Gos gorutines mapped to real threads,
in pthreads generally etc.). It seems, the implementation will be tightly
to be ?
above. they expect it to be a replacement for glade and/or qml etc. etc.

Just as a point of interest, my experiments with using LuaJIT in EFL
found that the Lua stuff itself is threadsafe so long as we use a
thread safe memory allocator, which LuaJIT itself provides. The memory
allocator we currently use in Edje Lua is not thread safe. I've been
meaning to ask,
In the end, what raster said is true, out of all the EFL C API, only some is
thread safe. The EFL design does include mechanisms for marshalling unsafe
calls to the main thread. So it doesn't matter which scripting language is
used to wrap it, somewhere along the line this call
