Subject: Re: wxruby and threads

See below - note it doesn't really matter where you create the thread - it could be passed into the App's constructor. It's just in on_init for simplicity.


a

require 'thread'
require 'wx'

class MinimalApp < Wx::App
  def on_idle
    @thread.run()
  end

  def on_init
    @thread = Thread.new do
      loop {
        puts 'HELLO'
        STDOUT.flush
        sleep 1
      }
    end
    evt_idle { on_idle }
    f = Wx::Frame.new( nil, -1,'Test' )
    f.show
  end
end

MinimalApp.new().main_loop
