Re: interleaved pcalls (multi-threading)

[Gaspard Bucher <gaspard@...>]

I have found this post from february 2010 saying that it should be ok, as long as I use a new thread (created with lua_newthread) as Lua context and only use it for the callback.

I think I am doing something evil but I'd like some internal highlights on why this does not work:

Scenario:

thread A --> pcall(1) --> in Lua --> in C (unlock, sleep) ... wait for lock . .........lock --> end pcall(1)

thread B ... wait for lock ............... lock, pcall(2) --> in Lua --> end pcall(2), unlock

Is this ok ? If it is not, how can I keep track of multiple "paths" into the application ?

Many thanks for any help,
