thread safety?

[seedship]

Is PyOctree thread safe? I would like to use multiprocessing to have multiple threads use the same pyoctree object to check if lines intersect the same mesh concurrently. Does that sound safe?

If not, is there a way I can copy an already made pyoctree object? Will copy.deepcopy work?

I implemented the serialization functions (needed for multiprocessing and copy) in #56
You can test it via pip install git+https://github.com/EmJay276/pyoctree.git@serializability

Minimal example see:
https://github.com/EmJay276/pyoctree/blob/serializability/pyoctree/Examples/pickle_test.py

import pickle

import numpy as np
from pyoctree import pyoctree

vertices = np.array(((0, 0, 0), (1, 1, 1), (2, 0, 0)), dtype=float)
polygons = np.array(((0, 1, 2),), dtype=int)

tree = pyoctree.PyOctree(vertices, polygons)

tree_data = pickle.dumps(tree)
tree_new = pickle.loads(tree_data)
