[Paraview] Threads in the python shell

[Felipe Bordeu]

Hello,

I want to use a tablet (android) to control the  GUI (rotation, pan, 
zoom) in paraview.
In the python shell a made network connection (socket) the sent command 
that I translate into paraview commands (this work ok).

The problem is that the GUI is not respond to the user iterations during 
the network iteration (I have a while loop in the python):

so the idea was to create a thread to treat all the network commands, 
but the code in the second thread is executed only for the time the main 
thread is running.
a example code is attached (very little code).

can I use threads inside paraview python shell, or I have to use c++??? 
(I prefer python, no need to recompile)
