dialogue and threads

["Yves Willems" <ywillems maia-scientific com>]

Hi all,

 

I have a multi threaded GTK app and want to show an error dialogue for an
error that occurred on a thread different then the main thread.

When showing the dialogue on this thread, the 'waiting for OK' blocks the
main thread and therefore freezes my GUI.

 

Can anyone give me a hint how to tackle such a problem?

 

Thanks
