hi all,
can anyone confirm that using outlet_anything() inside a thread is safe?
i am pretty sure this assumption is illegal. the problem will arise as soon as a "normal" object will receive messages from both threads. if you "guarantee" (e.g. leave it at the users discretion :-)) that no unprepared object will be involved in several threads, the i guess you are on the safe side (but maybe you are not) (see tim's [detach]/[join] objects)
generally however, i think you should do the synchronisation between several threads before using outlet_*()
