Detailed Description

This class starts a write operation for the PReadWriteMutex on construction and automatically ends the write operation on destruction.

This is very useful for constructs such as:

    void func()
    {
      PWriteWaitAndSignal mutexWait(myMutex);
      if (condition)
        return;
      do_something();
      if (other_condition)
        return;
      do_something_else();
    }


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PWriteWaitAndSignal::PWriteWaitAndSignal ( const PReadWriteMutex rw,
PBoolean  start = PTrue 
)

Create the PWriteWaitAndSignal wait instance. This will wait on the specified PReadWriteMutex using the StartWrite() function before returning.

Parameters:
rw  PReadWriteMutex descendent to wait/signal.
start  Start write operation on PReadWriteMutex before returning.

PWriteWaitAndSignal::~PWriteWaitAndSignal (  ) 

End write operation on the PReadWriteMutex. This will execute the EndWrite() function on the PReadWriteMutex that was used in the construction of this instance.
