Re: [equinox-dev] IApplicationContext#applicationRunning needs to be cal

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

On windows there is this [1].  Which states:  A thread cannot use DestroyWindow to destroy a window created by a different thread.

We create the window from the launcher on the main thread so I don't see this being fixable without holding onto the main thread to dispatch a message to to destroy the launcher window.  I wonder if os-x has similar restrictions.
