Hi all
I have developed an application that talks to two
other applications via XML. I have created a GUI using GTK+ to display the
responses from the other apps and embedded a timer to send requests. The problem
is I developed the app single threaded and then found out that it was too slow.
So created a couple of threads to communicate with the other apps and update the
screen. I then stuck all the GTK related stuff including gtk_main(); in a
separate thread and all my widgets in a structure hidden in a namespace that is
accessible to the entire app. In main() I then create all the threads and run
em. (Forgive me if this sounds messy but I am still quite new to GTK+
and even newer to multi-threading stuff). Everything seems to run smoothly up
until I try to create a message box from one of the threads responsible for
messaging. This is when I get the XLib problem. I've tried using
gdk_threads_enter() and leave and it hasn't made any difference. Anyone got any
ideas??
Cheers
