Name
mutex Class — Class that models the Mutex Concept using underlying OS locks.
Description
A mutex models the Mutex Concept. It is a wrapper around OS calls that provide mutual exclusion. Here are the advantages of using a mutex instead of the OS calls:
The
mutexclass is portable across all operating systems supported by Intel Threading Building Blocks.The
mutexreleases the lock if an exception is thrown from the protected region of code.
