Article #25654: Is Interclient thread safe?

Problem:
Is Interclient thread safe?

Solution:
The information in this article applies to:
  * InterBase v4.x
  * InterBase v5.x
  * InterClient v1.x

Interclient is thread-safe, meaning that a threaded
application can safely use the interclient library.

The InterBase client library is currently not multi-threaded
so you will not see a huge performance increase by
using multiple threads in your InterClient application.

InterClient is thread-safe because, it synchronizes calls into 
the InterBase client library.  So if two threads are trying to write to 
the same data, or perform an interbase query, they'll be serialized.
