Hello,
Almost all get_type() functions contain code
like
GType
whatever_get_type (void)
{
static GType object_type = 0;
if (!object_type)
{
static const GTypeInfo object_info =
{ ... };
object_type = g_type_register_static (G_TYPE_OBJECT, "Whatever", &object_info,
0);
}
return object_type;
}
Is this thread-safe? I cannot see any guards in
g_type_register_static that prevent a second type-node from
being allocated in the obvious race condition...
Am i missing something?
The gtype docuemtnation does not mention thread-safety of this function.
thanks,
dave
