Fwd: threads & gtk

["Fernando Apesteguía" <fernando apesteguia gmail com>]

I'm not sure about what are you asking...
Bur I think that you should check the fork() return value in order to guess
if you are the parent or if you are the child (forked) process.

In addition... you could consider to use GThreads instead of the libc fork()
system call. It's not a good idea to mix different API's.

Here is a link you can take a look:

Hello, i'll ask for help with gtk & threading.


The rules of my template:

Create an output Window.
Listen on a Socket for commands.
Listen on a Socket for data.


I wanna have 3 threads - naturally.

Therefor i built that scheme:

main () {
...
  /* init threads */
  g_thread_init(NULL);
  gdk_threads_init();
...
  if ( ! pid ) {
    pid_t pid=fork ();
    gdk_threads_enter ();
    ...
    gdk_threads_leave ();
    exit ( 0 ); }
  else {
    pid_t pid=fork ();
    gdk_threads_enter ();
    ...
    gdk_threads_leave ();
    exit ( 0 ); }
}

...somebody will help me that to trick??
