Well, the name is not good, i wasn't asking only for rendering, but also for browsing. The thing is about webkit, that they don't support call on their engine from multiple threads. Only the "main" thread can call webkit api. And that's one of things that we can have in common: having a system to pass command from external thread (like software or opengl thread) to webkit thread. -- To unsubscribe send a mail to [email protected]
