Hello All,

I am trying to invoke XpandTemplates in different threads, could you please suggest me whether Xpand is thread safe.

Each XpandTemplate is invoked using XpandFacade.

Hello Sven,

Thank you very much for the reply.....

in my case for each thread i am using an XpandFacade to invoke definition of an Xpand template, so in each thread .xpt and .ext will be parsed and loaded in memory for a particular XpandExecutionContext.

Could you please let me know which classes or which modules in Xpand are not thread safe...

Thanks in Advance!!

I'ld say nothing is thread safe.
But at the same time we don't have any global state (besides the EMF
registries) so if you create separate facades with separate execution
contexts and you make sure that you don't modify the state both engines
are wokring on (i.e. the model) or create clones before so, you should
be fine.
