Yes,
    please save yourself (and all of us) alot of effort by finding out 
the meaning
of threads, if you dont have a good understanding about threads, your 
program
will crash and lock up I garauntee it, you will also find yourself 
unable to properly
phrase questions about why its not working - because you havent figured out
the meaning of your questions yet.

Cheers,

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.
