c++ API and threads

Hi all,

I need to use hdf5 from a thread. I do not need concurrency, hdf5 API is
always used from the same thread which is not main.

If I understand correctly, in my case i do not need to use threadsafe
version of the library?

It is important for me because according to documentation C++ API is not
threadsafe.

And I have one dream:

it will be great if hdf5 will allow reading one dataset by one (or more)
process-readers while another dataset is written by process-writer.

  Yes, you should be fine then.

  Working on it. :slight_smile:
