Description

A set of utility functions for thread locking. This interface and all his related methods are deprecated since 2.12.

Functions

atk_misc_threads_enter ()

void
atk_misc_threads_enter (AtkMisc *misc);

atk_misc_threads_enter is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.

Since 2.12.

Take the thread mutex for the GUI toolkit, if one exists. (This method is implemented by the toolkit ATK implementation layer; for instance, for GTK+, GAIL implements this via GDK_THREADS_ENTER).

Parameters

misc

an AtkMisc instance for this application.

 

Since: 1.13


atk_misc_threads_leave ()

void
atk_misc_threads_leave (AtkMisc *misc);

atk_misc_threads_leave is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.

Since 2.12.

Release the thread mutex for the GUI toolkit, if one exists. This method, and atk_misc_threads_enter, are needed in some situations by threaded application code which services ATK requests, since fulfilling ATK requests often requires calling into the GUI toolkit. If a long-running or potentially blocking call takes place inside such a block, it should be bracketed by atk_misc_threads_leave/atk_misc_threads_enter calls. (This method is implemented by the toolkit ATK implementation layer; for instance, for GTK+, GAIL implements this via GDK_THREADS_LEAVE).

Parameters

misc

an AtkMisc instance for this application.

 

Since: 1.13


atk_misc_get_instance ()

const AtkMisc *
atk_misc_get_instance (void);

atk_misc_get_instance is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.

Since 2.12.

Obtain the singleton instance of AtkMisc for this application.

Returns

The singleton instance of AtkMisc for this application.

Since: 1.13

Types and Values
