Hello users.

I am using boost::threads for an application that allocates space in heap
with the new operator. Therefore,  different threads allocate memory in
parallel. Do I have to link my application to any other library apart from
the libboost_thread to guarantee a thread safe memory allocation?
I searched online, but I got more confused. Do I have to define the
-D_REENTRANT or the -pthread symbol?

Best Regards,
