Really? I didn't pay attention to ever twist or turn of the process of standardizing multithreading, but it greatly surprises me to hear that, because it would impose an overhead on those function-static variables that don't need synchronization. Can you cite the paragraphs that give this guarantee? -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
