How to initialize a thread safe static constant vector inside a function in C++11?

Question

bool function()
{

static const vector<unsigned char>header = {0x00 , 0x01 , 0x02};

//use header

}

Threads could be active before initialization in a constructor in the class using my function

This is [thread safe](http://stackoverflow.com/q/27286444/1708801) while C++03 this was not. — Shafik Yaghmour, Dec 09 '14 at 18:51
@ShafikYaghmour: feel free to close it as dup. I would do it if I had close votes left. — László Papp, Dec 09 '14 at 18:52
@lpapp I answered the question I linked so I won't dup hammer close it see [this meta thread](http://meta.stackoverflow.com/q/277126/1708801) .. not clear to me if it is an exact dup although clearly related. — Shafik Yaghmour, Dec 09 '14 at 18:53
@ShafikYaghmour: have no clue why it would be abuse. Although it is possible that the other question is dup, too. — László Papp, Dec 09 '14 at 18:55
@lpapp well I think George's point is that since it is a unilateral action you need to be extra sensitive to how others may perceive a conflict of interest. I am never quite sure what should be considered dups so unless it is blindingly obvious I usually tend not to close as a duplicate. — Shafik Yaghmour, Dec 09 '14 at 19:02
@ShafikYaghmour: I think it is blindingly obvious, but we can always reopen it if you make a mistake. We do not hold grudges, at least I do not. ;-) Thank you for your link. — László Papp, Dec 09 '14 at 19:03

It's already tread safe.

Now isn't that nice.
