well we are not using Multi threading in this case . This is a legacy system and we have no plans to consider threading in it in future. Person who programed it in 1997 dint considered any safe practices before, he just worte in a fashion which serve the req of client.
Well intiitaly i was tying with fromat fuction but i dint served my purpose then i moved to floattostrf this is not healthy functions in multi threaded that i knew it. But anyways like i said in previous mail my work arround made the bug to go away and made my client stop complaing of the loses he occrured due to this [?] But yeah i will re change it soon to optimise the way u guys sugguesting thanks On Thu, Mar 4, 2010 at 3:20 AM, Jolyon Smith <jsm...@deltics.co.nz> wrote: > Writing code that is thread-safe is still safe when there is only one > thread, but it sure does make things easier if/when you want to introduce > threads later on.
