Is GObject threadsafe?!

["Tomasz Jankowski" <tomcioj gmail com>]

Hello again!

Maybe you will ban me on this mailing list for sending many mails about
similar topic - I'm desperate ;P I only want to know, if GObject system is
thread safe. It's very important to me, to know if I can safety use
g_object_set and g_object_get from many threads without providing my own
thread protection. I found something on web but it wasn't clear for me.

We can read there:

> > GObject isn't thread-unsafe, it just uses the normal glib locking convention,
> > of the user having to pay attention to lock hist structs before using them.
> > that can't be done for the type system of course, so we do fine grained locking
> > there.

It's quite involved sentence. As I understand Tim Janik, said, that GObject
type system is thread safe. Help, I'm really confused :|
