Detailed Description

A convenience object for lexical scope based synchronization.

ScopedReadLock locks a ReadWriteLock for read at construction time and unlocks it when it is destroyed.

A block of code can be conveniently protected by a ScopedReadLock by using the synchronized_read() macro, e.g.:

ReadWriteLock rwlock;

synchronized_read(rwlock)
{
  // readers-exclusive code here
}
