Running multiple concurrent GMainLoops

Question

Are users of GLib allowed to run multiple GMainLoop instances concurrently in multiple threads, with each thread running its own instance? I\'ve found \"yes\" and

Answer 1

The book "Foundations of GTK+ Development" states this:

The GLib main loop is implemented as a number of structures, which allow multiple instances to be run concurrently.

So, given this, my test code, and the link I posted in the comment above we have a definitive answer to this question.

Namely: Multiple threads may have their own GMainContext & GMainLoop, and are able to independently run these loops in a concurrent fashion.
