in thread Alternatives to threads for maintaining GUI app responsiveness

Would you be up for the challenge

No way, I have better ways to spend Sunday. BTW, in this particular case I would probably use separate process for GUI (or even thread, I'm not a bigot), I don't see the reason you're trying to limit me with event-based solution.

    No way.

    Thought not. Many will advocate them, but none will offer code. Why do you think that is?

    I don't see the reason you're trying to limit me with event-based solution.

    Because you came out in strong support of them.
