GtkThread - The main loop to use with threads.

Module

Module GtkThread

Documentation

Module GtkThread
 :  sig end

The main loop to use with threads. GMain.main does not work! This changes GMain.main to call threaded_main rather than GtkMain.Main.default_main , so subsequent calls will work. The first call sets the GUI thread, and subsequent calls to main will be automatically routed through sync

val main : unit -> unit

Start the main loop in a new GUI thread. Do not use recursively.

val start : unit -> Thread.t

The real main function

val thread_main : unit -> unit

Forget the current GUI thread. The next call to main will register its caller as GUI thread.

val reset : unit -> unit

val async : ('a -> unit) -> 'a -> unit

Add an asynchronous job (to do in the main thread)

Add a synchronous job (to do in the main thread)

val sync : ('a -> 'b) -> 'a -> 'b

Whether it is safe to call most GTK functions directly from the current thread

val gui_safe : unit -> bool
