Subj : Asynchronous event during script execution

Hi,
I want to create a framework for executing script and maintaining an
event queue for events during this script execution.
Here is what I thought of:
Obviously I will need 2 thread one executing the script and the other
waiting for events.
The 2 threads will have seperate contexts but share the same global
object and thus both will access to the same global data.
(I know this might cause race condition but this under the scope of my
framework).
The events will be generated by the C code and I want each event to
cause a function invokation in the javascript shared by the two
threads.
Now here are my questions:
1 . How do I compile a script in one context for sqeuntal execution and
share it with the other context(thread) so it will call a special
functions in this script?

2. Did some one try this model (or something similar). Are there any
additional pitfalls I'm missing?

Thanks in advance,
Yiftah
