Custom EventHandler, custom events, and threads

I have a threaded application, and I was hoping to use a custom evthandler for IPC between my threads. I can get events generated by a window, but when I try to generate events from my code, (non-wxwidget class), they don't make it to the window.

I am using AddPendingEvent on my custom evthandler, how would I have to ::Connect() or ::SetNextHandler() in order to get my custom evthandler to send the message to the approperiate window?

Have you test with wxMutexGuiEnter and wxMutexGuiLeave [1] arround your ProcessEvent call ?

Strange, it appers that by adding that statement, the main gui thread deadlocks.

Although it does make sense to have.

Question, When I am pushing my custom eventhandler into the main_window::wxwindow, this will cause events generated at my custom eventhandler to follow through to the main window eventhandler yes?

or is that the events generated from the main window are being sent to my custom event handler?
