Thought I'd post this as it was discovered by experimentation rather
than finding the solution online.
Ok, so GLUT is _not_ thread safe. Basically, I was calling GLUT
functions from the two running threads; can't do that.
So, my solution was:
thread render:
- all GLUT function *must* be here.
- set GLUT timer function to check a re-draw var
thread sim:
- run the simulation.
- upon each completion, set the re-draw var
Not sure /exactly/ how to work mouse and keyboard input. But, it will
probably be very similar to the above. But, in the other direction.
