Edit Question
Title
Body
I tried googling but gotten no authoritative answer. Can someone confirm that the re module http://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html is thread-safe? More specifically, which functions are and which are not? Also, can I reuse a single global compiled re object to do sub , search , etc. safely across threads? Seems like there is still no clear answer? Ok, a more specific example: class MyClass: GLOBAL_VAR = re.compile(...) def clean(self, value): return MyClass.GLOBAL_VAR.sub('', value) Will this work as expected when multiple threads call clean at the same time?
