[jira] [Comment Edited] (STDCXX-1071) numpunct facet cache
initialization is not thread -safe
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STDCXX-1071?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13464295#comment-13464295 ]

-----------------------------------------------------------------
The file library-reduction.cpp is a reduction of the numpunct library code down to the essentials that still have the defect. The test case is intentionally verbose (180LOC) so that it still shows the organization of the library code. It exhibits the same failures as the original library code it has been extracted from. It takes two defines on the command line:
1. NO_USE_STDCXX_LOCALES -- if defined it mimics the setting of the facet data from the system locales
2. NO_USE_NUMPUNCT_CACHE -- if set, it does perfect forwarding, i.e., it does not cache "locale data" in the facet
The runs, with SUNPro 5.12 on Linux, exhibit failures (renamed to t.cpp):

The reduced program did not fail in my runs with NO_USE_NUMPUNCT_CACHE defined.

> The bug affects the initialization of the cached data in numpunct facet. The failing test is 22.locale.numpunct.cpp in certain builds: Linux with SUNPro 5.12, optimized, most likely to fail. It has been reported (see linked incidents) to fail on SPARC as well. It manifests in variate ways: sometimes as heap corruption, sometimes as access violations, etc. Test cases and library reduction programs to follow.
