I am new to boost meta state library. I am building one app, where I have to use msm.
My application has two threads, where they use same msm object as a shared resources. Now will the msm be thread safe if both threads call process_event on the same msm object?
Any idea is welcome.
Quoting Christophe Henry, who answered this when you asked it on the Boost.Users list:
msm is as thread-safe as a STL container: it's not.
Different threads should not call process_event on the same state machine object.
This means you'll have to serialize your calls to the object through a synchronization mechanism.
