Yes, I thought the same, but then I wasn't entirely sure if all these functions really are thread-safe. Some of them have const static variables, which might be initialised the first time the function is called AFAIK. I don't know if that's guaranteed to work if the functions can be called from multiple threads. But you can probably answer that question ;-) Best regards, Frank
