I have the following problem. I have a basic application that uses
livemedia (server to stream to clients). The application links to a
static livemedia library. This main application also uses a second
external library. This library also uses livemedia dynamically
(client to connect to a server). The problem is: the doEventLoop()
in the external library fails immediately. If we removed the static
linked livemedia library from the main application the external
library works fine.
There seems to be a shared resource in use, even though we use 2
different libraries and 2 different threads. Ports are different so
I'm not sure which other resource is causing this.
Anyone an idea?
Well, I'm not convinced that you can have more than one instance of
*any* library linked into a process - static or dynamic - and expect
things to work properly. Why not just use a single instance of the
library (i.e., the static one)?
You can use more than one thread within a process that uses our
library only if either (i) only one thread uses the library, or (ii)
if more than one thread uses the library, each does so using a
completely different "UsageEnvironment" object, and do not access
each others' objects. See the FAQ!
Your best bet, though, is to use separate processes, not multiple
threads within the same process.
