MutexHandle Class Reference

#include <mutex.h>

Detailed Description

Helper for simplifying mutex locking code.

This class will automatically unlock a mutex that you've locked through it, saving you from managing a lot of complex exit cases. For instance:

 MutexHandle handle;
 handle.lock(myMutex);

 if(error1)
   return; // Auto-unlocked by handle if we leave here - normally would
           // leave the mutex locked, causing much pain later.

 handle.unlock();
