how to generate glib events

[Mauro Condarelli <mc5686 mclink it>]

Hi All,
sorry to disturb, but I seem unable to fully grasp this.

I am using glib (not full GTK+) for a server application that needs to 
listen to multiple sockets/pipes.
I managed to have the GIOChannels working the way I need them.
Now I have (in some of the GIOChannel watches) a complete message to be 
processed.
In order to serialize processing I would like to avoid processing 
directly in the watch callback, I would like to "queue" somehow the 
message and have another "watch" in the main loop to wait on this queue.
I can do this easily using polling and timeouts, but this would 
introduce unacceptable delays.
I'm currently trying to implement this using a pipe and another 
GIOChannel watching on it.
Is this the right way to do such a thing?
Is there another (better) way to do this.
Can someone point me to the right documentation (possibly some tutorial)?
Should I implement a new Source  (g_source_new() and all associated 
paraphernalia)?
If so: where can I get some example?

Thanks in Advance
Mauro
