Full specialization of MutexImpl for pthreads.
Declared in <bslmt_muteximpl_pthread.h>
template<>
class MutexImpl<Platform::PosixThreads>;This class provides a full specialization of MutexImpl for pthreads. It provides a efficient proxy for the pthread_mutex_t pthreads type, and related operations. Note that the mutex implemented in this class is not error checking, and is non-recursive.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
NativeType | The underlying OS-level type. Exposed so that other bslmt components can operate directly on this mutex. |
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
MutexImpl [constructor] | Create a mutex initialized to an unlocked state. This method does not return normally unless there are sufficient system resources to construct the object. |
~MutexImpl [destructor] | Destroy this mutex object. The behavior is undefined if the mutex is in a locked state. |
lock | Acquire a lock on this mutex object. |
nativeMutex | Return a reference to the modifiable OS-level mutex underlying this object. |
tryLock | Attempt to acquire a lock on this mutex object. Return 0 on success, and a non-zero value of this object is already locked, or if an error occurs. |
unlock | Release a lock on this mutex. |
