Potential fix for crash under win32 when moving window #23

Open ghost opened 10 years ago

Hi Crategus,

According to http://gtk.10911.n7.nabble.com/Glib-2-32-x-Win32-and-threading-td60746.html this originates as an issue with GLIB/GDK functions #'gdk-threads-init, #'gdk-threads-enter and #'gdk-threads-leave under Win32 (or any non X11 environment).

I was able to fix for my app in Windows XP by just commenting out lines: 64, 65, and 70 in gtk/gtk.init.lisp.

Ideally detecting if the environment is Win32 and then avoiding calling the functions would be best though (so it is still used on X11)

The patch that came with 3afe137e22c95f26d604e586f6d11d3ed8db5868, sadly, did not fix the issues. Clozure CL on Windows 8.1 still freezes everything when moving a window. :(

Replacing :win32 by :win64 did not solve the issue for me.
