Thanks a lot ga. So you mean using the Glib classes. I had a look ... I can
include it in my testing list :-)

It also links to pthread

bash$> ldd /usr/lib/libgtkmm-2.4.so.1.0.30
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xb8007000)
        libgdkmm-2.4.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgdkmm-2.4.so.1 (0xb7c65000)
....
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0

I bet qt is also using pthread

So it's better to access pthread myself. The advantage of using the above
and not pthread is that everything has been packed in a class already.

The above examples are still very useful to give an idea of the
implementation logic.

Thanks and kind regards
