In the Java thread API (which I am most familiar with) you put the thread in a
wait() and then another thread can send the thread an interrupt() which makes
it wake up and do stuff.
I have a Cocoa thread waiting on events in a run loop. But I want to be able to
give the waiting thread a "kick" to make it wake up and re-load its context.
I realise I could write my own custom run loop input source, but it seems like
overkill if I could install a simple run loop observer and somehow just wake it
up when I want it to re-initialize. Is there a way to do that?
