How to use GDK Drawing API within another thread.

[Anil <anil gdit iiit net>]

Can we call GDK Drawing API's in a separate thread. I have read an article 
which says that X Drawing API's must be called in a single thread. Does it 
mean that, we can't have a multithreaded program which can draw onto a 
window ie different threads trying to draw.
