  • Is there any guarantee regarding initialization of static and thread_local objects? In example, is there any guarantee about the value printed by the following program?
  • #include<iostream>
  • static int a=3;
  • thread_local int b=a;
  • int main(void) {
  • std::cout << b << std::endl;
  • }
  • For threads other than the 1st one surely thread_local objects will be initialized after statics(*). But does the C++ standard provide any guarantee that thread_local objects will be initialized after static objects for the 1st thread?
  • (*) Unless the thread is started from the constructor of a global/static object. But not going there.

Static and thread_local initialization order
Is there any guarantee regarding initialization of static and thread_local objects? In example, is there any guarantee about the value printed by the following program?

    #include<iostream>
    static int a=3;
    thread_local int b=a;
    int main(void) {
        std::cout << b << std::endl;
    }

For threads other than the 1st one surely thread_local objects will be initialized after statics(*). But does the C++ standard provide any guarantee that thread_local objects will be initialized after static objects for the 1st thread?

(*) Unless the thread is started from the constructor of an static object. But not going there.
