Thread-safety

Open knedlsepp opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

After a quick test using valgrind I'm experiencing invalid reads on a multithreaded application. Is this a bug or is your library only expected to work in a single-threaded environment?

@knedlsepp the library is not thread safe, you should use locking mechanisms to use it in a multi-threaded environment. Probably it should be better documented.

Oh that's unfortunate. Thank you for the information!
