Based on recent discussion on threads/idles/timeouts, I wonder if I could get confirmation that what I'm doing to remove deprecated stuff is correct.
Current Situation: Ubuntu 10.04 libgtk2.0-dev 3.7.0.is.3.6.7-0ubuntu1 Makefile contains: CCFLAGS = `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0 gmodule-2.0` LIBS = `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0 gmodule-2.0` I use glade to create the user interface file. Code contains: g_thread_init() gtk_init() gtk_builder_add_from_file() g_slice_new() g_object_unref () [to destroy builder] gtk_main() g_timeout_add() G_LOCK_DEFINE_STATIC g_idle_add() g_thread_create() G_LOCK() G_UNLOCK() I will go to: Ubuntu 12.10 libgtk-3-dev glade 3.14.0-0ubuntu1 Makefile to contain: LIBS = `pkg-config --libs gtk+-3.0 gmodule-2.0` CCFLAGS = `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0 gmodule-2.0` Do I need to change the link to gmodule-2.0? To be honest, I really don't understand what it's for. Is there a good explanation somewhere? I use glade to create the user interface file. In my code, I will only replace g_thread_create() with g_thread_new(). Have I got it right? My main concern is that the idle function, timeout function, and thread calls listed above are still ok, with the one change to use g_thread_new(). g_timeout_add() is called from the main iteration. g_thread_create() is only called from the main iteration. g_idle_add() is only called from child threads created with g_thread_create() calls in the main iteration. G_LOCK and G_UNLOCK are called from the child threads mentioned immediately above. G_LOCK_DEFINE_STATIC was called in the main iteration. There's one other update on dialogs which is clear to me already.
