C++ Need thread safe wel tested containers (non microsoft)

Question

Any one having idea about thread safe data containers like queue, map? I dont want threadsafe STL when we use /MT switches for compiler.

A real thread safe wel tested STL containers.

Answer 1

Thread safe containers usually make no sense. Consider a 'thread-safe` queue:

if(!qu.empty())
{
    // 1
    qu.pop();
}

What if during #1 the queue is modified and it becomes empty? It breaks the code. This is why you should use locks in your code rather than 'thread-safe' containers.
