 TWriteLocker (ReadWriteLockType *lock)

Detailed Description

template<class WriteLockerType, class ReadWriteLockType>
class BALL::TWriteLocker< WriteLockerType, ReadWriteLockType >

This class provides a very thin wrapper around different mutex write-locker types. As default, BALL supports QWriteLocker, but it can be easily extended to support the same functionality with classes from boost or Intel Thread Building Blocks.

A BALL-mutex write-locker needs to provide a constructor which is called with a pointer to a corresponding TReadWriteLock. Upon construction, the mutex is automatically locked for write, and is automatically unlocked when the mutex runs out of scope.
