How to design a multithreaded application about td

[levlam]

I have an application that is split into multiple threads

This splitting is expected from a GUI application.

You can use td_send from any thread, but the way you dispatch response on the same thread depends on the programming language and framework you use. In some programming languages the best way is to use coroutines, in others you can use callbacks and framework-provided way to dispatch events between threads. In any case, you need an asynchronous scheduler provided by the programming language implementation or framework to simplify communication between threads.

My application will have a TUI interface and it is written in C++. I have a separate class for TDLib, in its constructor the TDLib update loop starts. This loop calls the get_authorization_state method, but I need to be able to call it in another thread too.

You must process responses asynchronously, so you need the ability to process response on another thread. Instead of full processing, you can just dispatch response to the original thread, but in any case you need the way to save request context and send data to other threads. For this you need some kind of multithread queues/multithread event dispatcher/multithread scheduler. There are a lot of decent already existing implementations of those, but I can't recommend any particular one.
