Is checkSubscription thread safe?

Mktdata Flextrade

Hi Team,

We are using RFA C++ API version 8.2.5, with the corresponding Open DACS API version 7.12.

Could you please confirm whether the checkSubscription() call made by a consumer application using rfa::dacs::AuthorizationAgent (authAgent) is thread-safe?

Our objective is to perform entitlement checks for a large number of symbols. Currently, the symbols are processed sequentially, one at a time. We are exploring whether this can be parallelized to reduce the overall time required for entitlement validation and would like to understand if checkSubscription() can be safely invoked concurrently from multiple threads.

Thank you in advance for your response

Thank you for reaching out to us.

I reviewed the documentation (DACSAUTH_devguide.pdf) and confirmed that the Open DACS API is thread-safe. As a result, its functions can be called concurrently from multiple threads.
