[graalvm-users] Testing polyglot libs

[Rodrigo Botafogo]

Thanks Benoit!

Now, is it really necessary to prevent multithreaded when interfacing Ruby
and R?  I understand that since R is not multithreaded, calling it from
multiple threads will cause weird problems, but if the programmer is
careful and say, only calls R from the same Ruby thread, everything should
work fine, no?  If this is the case, then could there be a flag to allow
multithreaded applications even in the presence of R?

Thanks
