[comp.windows.x] wake up XtAppMainLoop

lim@SPECTRA.ENG.HAWAII.EDU (Lim Kok Kian) (10/20/90)

I'm sure this has been asked before and I am sure there got to
be a away to get around with the following problem I have :

In my application I fork a child and do something and the child 
process will generate data and after so many data generated 
I want the parent process which is the application to be able to read 
or get the data and display that on the appication screen.

My question is : Is there a way to wake up the XtAppMainLoop from
the child .... say may be using some kind of signal ?

Any Help would be appreciated ... I will post the result if
there are much interest !
