Dear HDF community!

While I was trying to build the current (1.8.14) library with the mingw compiler I discovered that the library

a) cannot be built as a static library
b) built with C++ interfaces

if I need the lib in multithread safe variant.

While I understand that a) currently is a problem until a mechanism to release thread local storage on thread exit is implemented, I do not understand the restriction on b). Can anyone please explain why the C++ interfaces cannot be built thread safe, as it was possible with 1.8.10?

Thank you very much,
Roland

BTW.: This restrictions are not mingw specific, msvc is the same.
