There will be several cases where a plugin wants to access the main thread. There should be a clear and reliable mechanism to do this. If you have a look at how this problem is solved in Qt, you see that there you send a QCustomEvent through the event to a QObject. Transferred to a more abstract level, this means: - access and possibly wake up the event loop - an addressee - possibility to store private data - every request for access will result in exactly one access, as soon as possible as soon as all other events have been processed For VDR, this might mean: - add a mechanism to the event loop (cRemote) - the addressee and private data problem is solved when an object implementing a simple pure virtual interface is provided by the caller Marcel
