threads_leave


Description:

[ Version ( deprecated = true , since = "1.13" ) ]
public virtual void threads_leave ()

Warning: threads_leave is deprecated.

Release the thread mutex for the GUI toolkit, if one exists.

Note:

Since 2.12.

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:

this

an AtkMisc instance for this application.
