My application is a kind of viewer from files downloaded from the Web.

The GUI thread is the viewer.

There is also an updater thread that check for updates.

Im my current implementation, the GUI thread read local files written by the updater thread. Reads (GUI) and Writes (updater) are serialized.

I am not sure if this approach is OK:
- the GUI could be writting while the updater is also writting (i.e. Debug log),
- the GUI might be using FindFile while the updater is writting some files.

Is my implmentation right or should I gather all file acceses in a single thread ?

Any help is welcome (I'm new to MT),
Thanks,
Victor
