359. How to process concurrent button clicks?

Solution

  • For each button click, we run the signal handler on_button().
  • Each button click will start a "long" process which is reflected by the progress bar running from 0% to 100%.
  • There are two status line. The first status line shows the total number of clicks, while the second status line shows which click PHP-GTK2 is processing now.
  • Try clicking each button a number of times, and notice the order in which the clicks are being processed.
