[Mono-list] How to debug multi-threaded app ?

[Nil Gradisnik]

Let me be more specific :)

I think the problem lies in my liststore.AppendValues(....) and
liststore.Clear() functions. I need to use Application.Invoke if I'm
in thread for those too right ?

But if I use Application.Invoke for liststore, I get quite a few new
unhandled exceptions, why is that ?
