Here is the (cleaned up) stack trace of the deadlock:
ntdll.dll!0000000076dc135a() [Frames below may be incorrect and/or missing, no symbols loaded for ntdll.dll] KernelBase.dll!000007fefd4f10dc() Nitro.dll!boost::call_once
(boost::once_flag & flag, void (void)* f) Line 197 + 0x18 bytes C++ Nitro.dll!boost::call_once(void (void)* func, boost::once_flag & flag) Line 28 C++ It seems boost::wave is trying to parse some time stamp, and by doing so instantiates a grammar and that's when things seem to go bad.
The deadlock happens inside the constructor of the context type, and the Visual Studio debugger points me to line 197 in boost\thread\win32\once.hpp
BOOST_VERIFY(!::boost::detail::win32::WaitForSingleObject( event_handle,::boost::detail::win32::infinite));
It seems that call_once is not re-entrant; at least not in Win32, as indicated by the following ticket: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/3407 Any ideas on how to work around that issue ? Best Regards, Julien Lebot
