Hi guys...I've 2 thread and I would like that one of these performs a synchronous read, menawhile the other performs a synchrounous write...adn obviously they share the same socket.....the signature of the functions are the following:
length=boost::asio::read(socket_,boost::asio::buffer(msg,sizeof(msg)), ec);
boost::asio::write(socket_,boost::asio::buffer(msgToSend,sizeof(msgToSend)));
socket_ is a private field of the classe Server.
How can I use the mutex to perform concurrently and safetly these operations?
Thanks..

The typical usage of mutex: 1. Add boost::mutex mutex_ as private field of class Server 2. When you read/write just add mutex_.lock() before and mutex_.unlock() after. Also you can use boost::mutex::scoped_lock if it's convenient.
