Make thread-safe on Windows #156

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

As the CookBook states, gmock currently is not thread-safe on Windows.

It would be great for Chrome if this feature could be added. Chrome is highly 
multi-threaded and it is sometimes not possible to avoid spinning up a helper 
thread in unit tests.

As things stand right now, it is easy to write a multi-threaded test under 
Linux only to have it flake in weird ways under Windows.

Makes sense.

However, this is not a trivial change, and gmock is maintained by volunteers 
only, so please consider contributing a patch yourself. :)
