Description:
Documentation is not clear that NdbMgmHandle structures should not be shared between threads.

How to repeat:
watch your mgmapi program explode when you use the same NdbMgmHandle between threads without locking.

Suggested fix:
add to mgmapi docs "NdbMgmHandle objects cannot be shared between threads. You can implement your own locks around it if you want"

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been addressed in the
documentation. The updated documentation will appear on our website
shortly, and will be included in the next release of the relevant
product(s).

Additional info:

Added note to MGM API section of NDB API doc. Closed.
