Hi,
Is there any good motivation for the lack of the GMainContext argument
from "g_timeout_add" ?
Is there any counter-indication for the addition of a function like
the following to "gmain" ?
-----------------------------------------
guint g_timeout_add_to_context(guint interval, GSourceFunc function,
gpointer data, GMainContext *context) {
GSource *source;
guint id;
g_return_val_if_fail(function != NULL, 0);
source = g_timeout_source_new(interval);
g_source_set_callback(source, function, data, NULL);
id = g_source_attach(source, context);
g_source_unref(source);
return id;
}
-----------------------------------------
Does make any sense to add a Bugzilla feature request for the addition
of this function ?
In my opinion, it is quite useful in multi-threaded applications where
different threads have to use a separate main loop.
Regards,
Emilio
