[Asterisk-Dev] thread-safe and reentrant functions

[Gene Kochanowsky]

As long as people are making requests regarding the Asterisk code base, I would like to see asterisk converted to an object oriented application.

 Hi all , 

   I was looking at the source code and i found some not reentrant functions 
 like gethostbyname() . I guess that makes asterisk not thread-safe , and it should
 be solved . However i have test asterisk and seems to be quite *stable* ,
  
 Should it be patched with reentrant functions , for instance gethostbyname_r() ?

 Feel free to give your commments/opinios.

 Cheers.
