I have still some classes lying around in my code. As threading is becoming more and more of an issue, classes and OOP in general turn out to be a nuisance. It's not so hard to turn the classes into structs, a lot of classes are in fact singletons (yes, I've been kinda fading out classes for a while now). My question is now, what do I have to keep in mind if I turn a cached class into a cached struct, i.e.

initProgram()
{
auto myClass = new AwesomeDoEverything.instance(); // lives for the rest of the program, is a singleton
}

// ...

  myClass.call(input);

initProgram()
{
auto myStruct = AwesomeDoEverything(); // lives for the rest of the program
}

// ...

myStruct.call(input); // Can live in different threads without reinitializing it.

Or is there a way I can make a singleton class "thread-able"?

I cannot afford to re-initialize certain classes / structs because I don't wanna hit the file system every time I do so.
