Multithreaded Use

[nsoblath]

Are there any particular issues using the asdf-cpp library in a multithreaded environment? In particular, is it possible to:

• Write to multiple files, each from their own thread, in the same process?
• Write to a single file from multiple threads in the same process?

Thanks!

asdf-cpp is an incomplete prototype and is currently unmaintained. I'm not aware of any issues with writing multiple files concurrently, but you'd need to test to be sure. I suspect that writing to a single file from multiple threads is not a safe thing to do.
