Question

I have a project and I want to convert it to multi-threaded application. What are the things that can be done to make it a multi threaded application

List out things to be done to convert into multithreaded application
e.g mutex lock on shared variables.
I was not able to find a question which list all those under single hood.
project is in C

Answer 1

Single threaded application need not be concerned about being thread safe.

This issue arises when you have multiple threads which are trying to access a commonly shared resource. At that time, you must be concerned.

So, no need to worry.
