[Oorexx-devel] Questions ad AttachThread() (Re: "Thread data" per Rexx thread ?

[Rony G. F. <Ron...@wu...>]

Just a question: if issuing AttachThread() multiple times for the same
thread, would the same thread context pointer be returned or a new one
constructed each time?

Is the Rexx instance maintaining any thread-related data as long as a
Rexx thread exists at all?
