Is FPDF_LoadCustomDocument itself thread safe?

[Zifei QIAN]

Hi community,

It is known that pdfium is not thread safe. But I'm wondering if the method FPDF_LoadCustomDocument is OK to be used in parallel processing scenarios? We want to check PDF file's validity in a service using this method. I did a simple test locally and examined the source code. The answer seems a yes to me but I'd still like to get a more solid confirmation. :) Or any other suggestion regading PDF validity check is welcomed. 

Your help is very much appreciated!

Thanks,

Zifei

You shouldn't assume PDFium is thread-safe anywhere. Even if the
current implementation is to some degree, there is no guarantee that
won't change in the future. If you want to do parallel processing,
consider going multi-process instead of multi-thread.
