get_os_mutex() [1/2]

QMutex* scopira::tool::mutex::get_os_mutex ( void  )

inline

Returns the internal operating system primitive.

get_os_mutex() [2/2]

pthread_mutex_t* scopira::tool::mutex::get_os_mutex ( void  )

inline

Returns the internal operating system primitive.

lock() [1/2]

void scopira::tool::mutex::lock ( void  )

inline

Aquires and locks the mutex. The call blocks if its locked by another thread.

lock() [2/2]

void scopira::tool::mutex::lock ( void  )

inline

Aquires and locks the mutex. The call blocks if its locked by another thread.

try_lock() [1/2]

bool scopira::tool::mutex::try_lock ( void  )

inline

Bahaves just like lock(), except that if the mutex is already locked, this function will return false rather than perform a blocking wait.

True will be returned if the lock was aquired. Don't forget to unlock() it.

unlock() [1/2]

void scopira::tool::mutex::unlock ( void  )

Unlocks a previously locked mutex. Always make sure you match your locks and unlocks (use the locker utility for help)
