Hello list,


(it might look that recent GTK3 is not Boehm GC friendly, and Bigloo is
using that GC, so...)

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43141659/is-recent-gtk-3-22-still-boehm-gc-friendly-thread-issue
is a more detailed (but not Bigloo specific) way of asking the same
question.

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=780815 is also discussing
that question.


Bigloo is using Boehm GC which wants to know about every thread (using it).

GTK 3.22 is creating threads behind our back (e.g. from
g_application_run ....), but these threads are not registered to Boehm
GC. I don't know what they are useful for.

If some code running outside of the main thread is calling GC_malloc, it
could do bad things.

So are there any issues in using Bigloo with recent GTK 3 ?

Cheers
