The read_write_mutex currently is broken. The page you are viewing is not an
|
|
official part of this release. If you have found this page by following links
|
|
within the documentation set, consider this as unintended. If you have found
|
|
this page by opening it directly you are likely knowing what you are doing.
|
|
You will be unable to use the code, since it also has been stripped from
|
|
the release set. If you are still wanting to see it, please look into the CVS
|
|
repository where it is available of course.
