Hi Dan,

thanks for your answer. The UDF only contains functions (the one called in sql 
plus two functions called in it). There are no variables outside them and 
nothing is declared static. All variables inside the functions are declared 
just like "double x=0;" etc. I am not an expert on C, but my understanding is 
that these values are separate for each call of the function and don't 
influence each other. Do you have a suggestion what I should look for in my c 
code? Or do I need to make the code thread-safe in that sense that concurrent 
executions are prevented by monitors or semaphors or so (no idea about what 
this is called in c)?
Stefan
