MainContext.getThreadDefault

Gets the thread-default glib.MainContext for this thread. Asynchronous operations that want to be able to be run in contexts other than the default one should call this method or MainContext.refThreadDefault to get a glib.MainContext to add their glib.Sources to. (Note that even in single-threaded programs applications may sometimes want to temporarily push a non-default context, so it is not safe to assume that this will always return NULL if you are running in the default thread.)

If you need to hold a reference on the context, use MainContext.refThreadDefault instead.

class MainContext
static
getThreadDefault

Return Value

the thread-default glib.MainContext, or NULL if the thread-default context is the global default context.
