<h2><a name="Introduction">Introduction</a></h2>

|
|
<p>This class template defines a generic <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/~checkout~/boost/boost/libs/thread/doc/Attic/lock_concept.html">lock
|
|
concept</a> type. The
|
|
<a href="mutex.html">mutex</a>, <a href="mutex.html">try_mutex</a>, <a href="mutex.html">timed_mutex</a>,
|
|
<a href="recursive_mutex.html">recursive_mutex</a>, <a href="recursive_mutex.html">recursive_try_mutex</a> and
|
|
<a href="recursive_mutex.html">recursive_timed_mutex</a> classes all use this template to define their
|
|
<tt>lock</tt> types. Instances of class basic_lock meet the <a href="lock_concept.html#requirements">Lock
|
|
requirements</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Like all the <b>Boost.Threads</b> <a href="lock_concept.html">lock models</a>,
|
|
<tt>basic_lock</tt> objects are meant to be short lived. Objects of class <tt>basic_lock</tt>
|
|
are not <a href="thread_formal_definition.html#thread-safe">thread-safe</a>, and
|
|
so should not be shared
|
|
between threads.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Class basic_lock follows the "resource acquisition is
|
|
initialization" idiom [<a href="bibliography.html#Stroustrup-00">Stroustrup
|
|
00</a> 14.4.1]. Thus a common usage is to let the constructor do the
|
|
locking, and then let the destructor do the unlocking automatically at the end
|
|
of the enclosing scope. The lock() and unlock() members are commonly not
|
|
explicitly called.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The type <code>M</code> used to instantiate class <code>basic_lock</code>
|
|
must meet the <a href="mutex_concept.html#requirements">Mutex requirements</a>.</p>

<h3>Constructor</h3>

<pre>

explicit basic_lock(M& mx, bool lock_it=true);
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Effects: </b>Associates mutex <code>mx</code> with <code>*this</code>.

<h3>Destructor</h3>

<h3>lock</h3>

<p><b>Effects: </b>If the associated mutex is not already locked, locks
|
|
it. Otherwise, the effect depends on the locking strategy of the
|

associated mutex, as shown in the following table:</p>

<h3>unlock</h3>

<p><b>Effects: </b>Unlocks the associated mutex.</p>

<h3>const void* Conversion</h3>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|

operator const void*() const;
|

</pre>
|
|
|

<p><b>Returns:</b> If the associated mutex is currently locked, a value

convertible to <code>true</code>, else a value convertible to <code>false</code>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Rationale:</b> A <code>const void*</code> conversion is considered safer
|
|
than a conversion to <code>bool</code>.</p>
