The scoped locking pattern.

It helps to avoid the common problem of forgetting to release lock. It also nicely provides the "node" for queuing locks.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

tbb::queuing_rw_mutex::scoped_lock::scoped_lock (  )  [inline]

Construct lock that has not acquired a mutex.

Equivalent to zero-initialization of *this.

tbb::queuing_rw_mutex::scoped_lock::scoped_lock ( queuing_rw_mutex m,
bool  write = true 
) [inline]

Acquire lock on given mutex.

Upon entry, *this should not be in the "have acquired a mutex" state.
