Subject: [Boost-users] [format] Thread safety of boost::format

I was browsing the boost::format docs and did not find anything about the
Thread safety of boost::format. Essentially I want to craft a bunch of
error handling methods like this:
void ProcessError(...args...)
{
static boost::format formatter(...); //Try to save the cost of
creating this for every single error
//do stuff
LOG(boost::str(formatter % ...args...);
}
This method would be called from many, many threads. Is this considered
safe? Is there some general information about the thread safety of
boost::format methods somewhere in the docs?
