Description Peder Andersen CLA 2011-05-02 19:42:37 EDT
Some implementations of the TCF Agent cannot run the event queue on the thread which instantiates it; we need a way to instantiate the core event queue object, create some fundamental objects (Protocol, etc.) then run the event queue itself as a new thread.

Originally reported as part of bug 339590.
Comment 1 Eugene Tarassov CLA 2011-06-03 09:38:44 EDT
I have changed the code to allow to call run_event_loop() from a thread other than the thread that called ini_events_queue().
