[ros-kernel] Re: Determining the current window

[Jarmo M. <ja...@mu...>]

Nobody have replied to this, so I post my first e-mail to this
mailing list.

Process can exists on multiple desktops. Just open desktop, create
thread, attach thread to desktop and here you go, the process is
on two desktops. Then in another thread create windows and enter
into message loop. I've done this in my application. As many
desktops user creates, as many threads there are running.
