Ah right. Sounds a bit early to worry about yet. > Or CodingStyle? To mention that one should at least strive for thread-safety. It does already contain such an exhortation (almost in those words), but without more specifics I'm slightly at a loss as to how to put it into practice, beyond basic re-entrancy. | - Strive to make your code re-entrant (thread/recursion safe), as long as | this does not make the implementation too cumbersome or involved. _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
