R help - May 2009 - About " Error: C stack usage is too close to the limit"--resend

Hi everyone!
   I meet one problem when embedding R in C code, when I run the the R code in
one child thread ,
   it always print error info: 
    Error: C stack usage is too close to the limit

   I also try to set R_CStackLimit = (uintptr_t)-1 to disable the C stack check
as the R-ext doc say,
   but it still does not work. 

   it is interesting that if i put the R code in the main thread(don't
create any thread), it work.

   so, can anybody give some help or suggestion about this problem,
   any response will be appreciated, tks in advance.

         int  hadError;
         int argc = 0;
         char *argv[1];
         ParseStatus status;

         init_R(argc, argv);

        PROTECT(tmp = mkString("{print(lh)}"));
        PROTECT(e = R_ParseVector(tmp, 1, &status, R_NilValue));
        PrintValue(e);
        R_tryEval(VECTOR_ELT(e,0), R_GlobalEnv, &hadError);
       
       UNPROTECT(2);
       end_R();
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
    pthread_t th1;
    int iret1;
    
    iret1 = pthread_create(&th1, NULL, ts_thread,NULL);
    pthread_join(th1, NULL);
    printf("Thread 1 return:%d\n", iret1);
 
    return 0;
}
