How do I make the child thread exit when the main thread exits?

void forloop2()
{
    int i = 0;
    while(TRUE)
    {
        printf("forloop2\n");
    }
}

int main() {
    GThread          *Thread1;
    GtkWidget *window;
    g_thread_init(NULL);
    gdk_threads_init();
    gdk_threads_enter ();
    Thread1 = g_thread_create((GThreadFunc)forloop2, NULL, TRUE, NULL);
    gtk_init(NULL, NULL);
    window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
    gtk_widget_show_all (window);
    gtk_main();
    g_thread_join(Thread1);
    gdk_threads_leave ();
}

      

When I close the window, how do I Thread1

exit as well?

Clean up basically the condition that the forloop2 () loop checks every iteration. When you want to exit main, set this condition and then call g_thread_join () on Thread1. Since forloop2 () checks when it sees this condition, it will exit, forcing it to join, and main will continue.
