[Glade-users] Thread safe?

I am doing this in couple of threads (other than the main thread)
        
gtk_text_insert(status_text, NULL, NULL, NULL, mesg, strlen(mesg));

Where status_text is a handle to the text box on my GUI - setup by the 
main thread.

Do u mean to say it will cause problems, irrespective of whether the 
access to status_text is protected by locks...?

Thanks,
imtiaz.
