Functions

atk_misc_get_instance

Obtain the singleton instance of AtkMisc for this application.

deprecated: Unknown since: 1.13

Instance methods

atk_misc_threads_enter

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).

deprecated: Unknown since: 1.13

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).
