When is lockning done on which data?<br><br>- How do I have to take care of what? May I pass surfaces from one thread to another?<br>Do I have to do some locking by my own?<br><br>- Does cairo use per-thread or static datastructures, which need to be taken special care?<br><br>Thanks you, Thomas<br></div> </div><br> </body></html>
