Protected Attributes

Detailed Description

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::spin_rw_mutex_v3::scoped_lock::scoped_lock (  )  [inline]

Construct lock that has not acquired a mutex.

Equivalent to zero-initialization of *this.


Member Function Documentation

bool tbb::spin_rw_mutex_v3::scoped_lock::upgrade_to_writer (  )  [inline]

Upgrade reader to become a writer.

Returns whether the upgrade happened without releasing and re-acquiring the lock


Member Data Documentation

bool tbb::spin_rw_mutex_v3::scoped_lock::is_writer [protected]

If mutex!=NULL, then is_writer is true if holding a writer lock, false if holding a reader lock.

Not defined if not holding a lock.
