Proposals: 1) Smth like Python's "threadqueue" as multiple threads where each of has same OnExecute procedure but with per-thread data/object to process. With priorities within the queue, sure. [suitable for multiple file uploading..]
2) maintaining thread variables so that they can be accessed by main app thread - in some scenarios it'll allow polling these variables instead of deadlock-prone locking/unlocking. 2012/7/25, Ivanko B <ivankob4m...@gmail.com>: >> Most GUI >> frameworks recommend/dictate that ALL gui work must be done within the >> main thread > =============== > Even stepping/resizing progress bars ?
