Re: [Quantlib-dev] thread safe session handling via TSS

[Riccardo G. <rg...@la...>]

Not directly, no.
I've looked at mortoray patch. Unfortunately that scheme is not 
compatible with thread storage;  having a per-thread instance makes all 
the sessionId/sessionIdFunc machinery useless.  In a way, is implicitly 
handled.  Likewise for the instances_ map.

On the other hand, perhaps I can rework the tss patch to avoid including 
boost thread headers in singleton.hpp, if we don't want to force 
quantlib users to compile with boost:thread.
That should preserve the main qualities of the above patch, i.e. being 
thread-safe and not requiring libboost_thread, plus the added safety, 
simplicity and performance of tss.

it might be a reasonable solution ?
Ciao,
R
