Is static class constructor by default threadsafe ? Or it need to explictely make threadsafe?
The CLR guarantees that the static constructor will be invoked only once for the entire lifetime of the AppDomain. It will be called the first time a static member is accessed or an instance is created. And since it is called only once per AppDomain you could safely assume that only a single thread can call it.
