my summary on how to use gtk with threads

Hi, here is my short summery of how to use gtk with threads, ordered by the main problems to be worked around. I aimed to find a small set of *general* rules to follow rather than solutions for individual cases. So this guides shall turn gtk's thread awareness into thread safety--for those who

[GTK with threads]

Hello, we got a problem with an application we are developing , GTK+ based. It's a p2p application, based on a protocol similar to gnutella. Actually, it's quite simple: it's a project for a university course. Our main() create a pthread for a server, that is a thread that accepts connections on

Re: GTK and threads

This FAQ entry is where I started from. My first attempt at making threads work resulted in all threads running one after the other, in series instead of in parallel, because I was locking the whole thread with gdk_threads_enter() at the beginning. I progressed to trying to lock only the
