Cheers, -Tristan I'm not about to write a book here but here's a little hint to justify my rant: - Threads share data throughout the process address space, all data belongs to the 'program' or 'process', if you are currently executing thread B, then function calls from thread B will be run in thread B; regardless of in which object file the stub happened to be built in and linked from. - When you use an idle handler (g_idle_add()) to schedule an event in the mainloop, this will result in a write to a pipe() that is used to wakeup the GMainContext of the mainloop (usually in the main thread), again - regardless of what object file the idle handler was declared in - it will be run from the main thread of execution. _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
