In fact the use case is... historic :). I use FreeBSD, and some years ago (I don't remember the owfs version, but against FreeBSD 7) the multi-threading feature didn't compile. So, at this time, I compiled owfs with multi-threading disabled. Since that, I kept the huge configure command line and use it when I need to upgrade owfs on this embedded system. That's why I detected this bug with the last version... :)
On the other hand, I manage a more recent project, still on FreeBSD, where owfs is compiled with multi-threading enabled and it works like a charm. From FreeBSD 7 to 9. So, from my point of view, single-threading support can be discontinued. Best regards, Max. Le 22.07.2012 13:25, Paul Alfille a écrit : > Thank you fro the patch.
