Hello performers.

I need two different lines of execution in my pfapp in order to modify
a dcs at the same time I walk through the scene. The dcs movement is
caused by a keyboard event, and I don't want to query in the simulation
loop the status of the dcs each time. I want it to be event managed.

For this task, I'm using the libpthread library to start an additional
line of execution and do the dcs transformation when a certain key is
pressed. Sometimes it works fine, but usually it crashes (with a Kernel
Panic message and the machine going down!!!). I use Performer 2.1 in O2
platform.

I would appreciate any suggestion about this problem, if someone have used
threads in an application.
