I guess so if you want to make it easy for the users. Another option would be to require them to call a static initialize function from main() before they start any additional threads.
That is not a good idea in this case. 1) Each instantiation of the template would need it's own initialize function.
Not necessarily. The Standard requires _any_ function to be called from the TU to execute dynamic initialization.
2) It is not safe to use a state_machine during the dynamic initialization phase.
I was thinking about some functions that are executed automatically on module load (see __attribute__((constructor)) in GCC, for example). That might free users from calling such function. -- Best regards, Andrey mailto:andysem@mail.ru
