Multithread lock

What is the best way to lock a NSOpenGLView, when drawing from a thread?




- (void)draw
{
if([self lockFocusIfCanDraw]){
[[self openGLContext] makeCurrentContext];


Drawing.....
glFinish();
[[NSOpenGLContext currentContext] flushBuffer];
[self unlockFocus];
}
}

- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)aRect
{
[self draw];
}


Sometimes i get a deadlock
[NSViewHierarchyLock lockForWriting]
what is the right way to implement this without a deadlock,
and not getting a panic if i don't use any lock's?
