[bug #25943] Error trying to lock focus in offscreen window

[Fred Kiefer]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #25943 (project gnustep):

Your great debugging session shows quite clear where the problem is. It is
the call to  [NSGraphicsContext saveGraphicsState], as this happens on a
secondary thread there is no previous graphics context (GSCurrentContext()
return nil). NSApplication takes care that the thread that calls
[NSApplication init] has a graphics context set up, but similar things don't
happen automatically for other threads.

You could use the method [NSGraphicsContext setCurrentContext:] in that
secondary thread to do this yourself.
I would expect that behaviour of Cocoa to be different and will welcome any
patches to make drawing in GNUstep work on secondary threads.
