BTW, for typical GUI applications you can actually get by perfectly fine with just one thread. I use libwww together with glib, GTK+ and the "glibwww" glue code to develop a cross-platform "download manager"-like application. Check <http://atterer.net/jigdo/> for working code. (The app itself is far from finished, but multiple downloads already work.) I had to hack glibwww a bit to make it work under Windows as well as Linux. > My code for HTEvtLst/threaded under windows is available upon request. > > I also had to remove limitations about HTHost and HTAnchor (in a server > environment, I call these limitations 'memleaks' :-) Have you made sure that your bugfixes are also included in the main libwww sources? That would be a benefit for all libwww users.
