[Botan-devel] Is Botan TrippleDES "TripleDES/ECB" thread safe?

Hi,

	Im using botan to perform Triple DES calculations in a tcpip server.
Each new connection is run in a new thread. When I hit the server with 
multiple simultainious connections, I'm sometimes getting this error.

"terminate called after throwing an instance of 
'Botan::Default_Mutex_Factory::make()::Default_Mutex::Mutex_State_Error'
  what():  Botan: Internal error: Default_Mutex::lock: Mutex is already locked
Aborted"

Does anyone know what it means, and do I need to put a mutex lock around my 
triple des calculations?

Thanks


Brian.
