Re: gtk threads

[Todd Fisher <taf2 lehigh edu>]

I left one other part out you need to also modify the source_cb function:

static gboolean
source_cb(gpointer data)
{
   g_printf("i:%d\n",*((gint*)data));
   gdk_threads_enter();
   gtk_main_iteration_do( FALSE );
   gdk_threads_leave();
   return TRUE;
}

hope this helps :-)
