 Nested structures and Eet Data DescriptorsWe've seen already a simple example of how to use Eet Data Descriptors to handle our structures, but it didn't show how this works when you have structures inside other structures
 Advanced use of Eet Data DescriptorsA real life example is usually the best way to see how things are used, but they also involve a lot more code than what needs to be shown, so instead of going that way, we'll be borrowing some pieces from one in the following example

 Win - General API overviewFor most users of the Elementary API, the Elm_Win widget has a lot more functions than what they need
 Web - Simple exampleWebKit-EFL is independent of any particular toolkit, such as Elementary, so using it on applications requires that the programmer writes a lot of boiler plate code to manage to manage the web object
 EFL Threading example 1You can use threads with Elementary (and EFL) but you need to be careful to only use eina or eet calls inside a thread
 EFL Threading example 2You can also use ecore_main_loop_thread_safe_call_sync() to call a specific function that needs to do EFL main loop operations
 EFL Threading example 3Like with ecore_main_loop_thread_safe_call_sync() you can provide a callback to call inline in the mainloop, but this time with ecore_main_loop_thread_safe_call_async() the callback is queued and called asynchronously, without the thread blocking
 EFL Threading example 4Now when you want to have a thread do some work, send back results to the mainloop and continue running but the mainloop controls when the thread should stop working, you need some extra flags
 EFL Threading example 5This is the same as EFL Threading example 4 but now uses the ecore_thread infrastructure to have a running worker thread that feeds results back to the mainloop and can easily be cancelled
 EFL Threading example 6You can also use the ecore_thread infrastructure for compute tasks that don't send feedback as they go - they are one-shot compute jobs and when done they will trigger the end callback in the mainloop which is intended to pick up the results and "display them"
