Re: ref/unref in GObjects thread safe?

This states that manipulation of the reference count with
g_object_ref() and go_object_unref() is thread-safe as from glib-2.8:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gobject/stable/gobject-memory.html#gobject-memory-refcount

Oh, thanks for the info.
 

Although the reference count is thread safe, for concurrent access to
the data members of the same GObject object in different threads, you
would usually need to do your own locking.

Yes, of course.

Thanks,
