Note also that part of the magic of gdk_threads_enter/leave that you can use
on unix to use gtk functions in subthreads does not work on win32 (and also
on OSX).
I had really some bad h
All right, so at the end it was my bug :)
Thank you all for your explanations.

Yes, this is how things should be done. But for your convenience, GDK
provides a function that will wrap your idle callback in lock/unl
Hi,
So what you suggest is to have gdk_threads_enter and gdk_threads_leave at
the beginning and at the end of the idle function?
Is this really intended?
Anyway, thanks for your help.

Hi.
You're having troubles because gtk_main_iteration_do() does it's own
unlock/lock cycle.
When your idle callback is executed, your mutex is unlocked.
gtk_main_iteration_do() "unlocks" it again, executes whatever is there
to be executed and locks it. Now control returns back to main loop,
which
Hi all,
I am not sure if this is a bug or just my misunderstanding of how the
synchronization is done in GTK.
Below is a simple "test.c" example in which the deadlock occurs.
Basically program deadlocks itself when "idle_func" is done and control is
returned to "gtk_main".
Thanks for your help
