ThreadReleaseLock Struct Reference

Detailed Description

This class provides an easy and less error-prone way of temporarily releasing a locked mutex.

This class is the inverse of class ThreadLock.

// Inside a request handler entered with the dispatcher mutex held:
{
   ThreadReleaseLock rlock(request);
   // Perform blocking application work here, without calling BAS APIs
   // or accessing shared BAS objects while their mutex is released.
} // The same mutex is acquired again before BAS work resumes.
