Ben Craig commented on THRIFT-3228:
-----------------------------------
This is a documented limitation. From TPipe.h:
/**
* Windows Pipes implementation of the TTransport interface.
* Don't destroy a TPipe at global scope, as that will cause a thread join
* during DLLMain. That also means that client objects using TPipe shouldn't
be at global
* scope.
*/
>From TPipeServer.h
/**
* Windows Pipes implementation of TServerTransport.
* Don't destroy a TPipeServer at global scope, as that will cause a thread join
* during DLLMain. That also means that TServer's using TPipeServer shouldn't
be at global
* scope.

> Fix TAutoOverlapThread may reference released memory
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-3228
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3228
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: C++ - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.9.2
> Reporter: Paweł Janicki
> Priority: Critical
> Attachments: ConsoleApplication1.cpp
>
>
> A released memory may be referenced by TAutoEverlapThread in case there
> exists a global instance of TPipeServer or TNamedPipeServer or
> TAutoOverlapThread in compilation module other than
> src\lib\cpp\src\thrift\windows\OverlappedSubmissionThread.cpp
> TPipeServer on listen() instantiates TNamedPipeServer which instantiates
> TAutoOverlapThread. The TAutoOverlapThread calls in it's d-tor a static
> function TOverlappedSubmissionThread::release_instance(). This static
> functions refers to global variable "TCriticalSection
> TOverlappedSubmissionThread::instanceGuard_" defined in
> src\lib\cpp\src\thrift\windows\OverlappedSubmissionThread.cpp.
> As the d-tion of globar variable is undefined across compilation modules it
> may happen that if user defined global variable holding reference to
> TPipeServer, the instanceGuard_ can be freed by CRT before call to
> TPipeServer d-tor, which will reference deleted global variable
> instanceGuard_.
> This is because of incorrect implementation of singleton pattern of
> TOverlappedSubmissionThread.
