You can just start your worker thread using std::async, std::thread or Glib::Threads::Thread, and on completion the worker thread can post its continuation to the glib main loop using Glib::SignalIdle::connect_once(): see https://developer.gnome.org/glibmm/2.52/classGlib_1_1SignalIdle.html For something more formalized you could use TaskManager::make_task_packaged_compose() from c++-gtk-utils: http://cxx-gtk-utils.sourceforge.net/2.2/classCgu_1_1Thread_1_1TaskManager.html#aea4d2ce3d963f207f2c23813ae9e8c2a Chris _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list gtkmm-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
