Hi Isaac,
as far as I know the problem with static libraries is not the
threadsafety of HDF5 itself, the code is the same, but the
initialization & cleanup code. With a shared library, there are such
defined entry points when loading and unloading a shared library which
does a clean initialization and cleanup, but with a static library there
is no such option. If you'd want to use threadsafe HDF5 with the static
library, you would need to explicitly call the initialization & cleanup,
for instance from your main program or from another shared library at
startup/cleanup. I'm not sure whether HDF5 1.8.17 explicitly supports
such, it may be possible but not implemented that way.

I see in the docs that as of 1.8.6 hdf threadsafe is available for
windows but only if you use link hdf shared. Is this true with 1.8.17
(or the latest hdf version)?
Is thread safe available for hdf static in windows?
Thanks,
isaac
