Add boxed GType for GThread (2.67 KB, patch)

Description Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2012-11-20 07:53:19 UTC 
Hi,

would be great if a boxed GType for GThread could be added to GObject. Currently we have our own type for this in GStreamer (GstGThread) but having one for GThread directly would make the life much easier for bindings.

Patch following.

Sebastian, could you please point me to a use case of passing GThread pointers around inside GStreamer?
