Re: Glib threads in gtk-perl?



Suspected as much. Looks like it's back to square one.

GThreads are used in Perl Glib, but only to manage Glib data
structures, not to manage threads themselves; threads should be
created/managed using the Perl 'threads' module [1][2].

You should also run 'perl -V | grep ithreads' to check to see if your
Perl is compiled with thread support, the output of the above command
should say 'useithreads=define'.

There's also a FAQ question about using threads in Gtk-Perl at [3].

Thanks,

Brian
