Description
AnjutaAsyncCommand provides a simple way for plugins to run tasks that are synchronous and usually take several seconds or longer to execute in another thread so that such tasks do no block Anjuta's user interface.
AnjutaAsyncCommand automatically runs and manages the thread when the command starts, and destroys it when the command finishes. Aside from locking protected data with anjuta_async_command_lock/unlock, clients, and even commands themselves need not even be concerned that their tasks are rnning on another thread.
For an example of how AnjutaAsyncCommand is used, see the Subversion plugin.
