Switching X contexts HOWTO ??



Hi there!

        I'm writing an Image server that has to load images ("GdkPixmaps" etc
....)
as X recources (with an XID *) into various X servers And before I go
and write a
"gtk_xcontext_switch(const char *display);" interface I'm wondering if
one already exists

... but it doesn't seem like gtk was developed with that in mind.

I've got a few Ideas

1. Spawn a child proccess to do gtk_init() ... add widgets and exit()
(the exit will cleanup gtk)
2. Spawn a child for every X server I have to serve (what a pain in the
ass :( )

Idealy I need to "Uninit" gtk without flaging X resources as "dirty".

If anyone has any Ideas or has had / having similar problems please mail
me at:

        Thx!
