Right. The mutex is acquired in the constructor and therefore provides the memory barrier needed. It looks wrong to my eyes since I would never use raw new/delete in this context. Sorry for the noise.

So how you delete a lock ?? Is there any other safe way to delete a lock ?

I don't know what you are asking. Can you provide an example? Use the scoped lock concept. If you need to hide boost from the rest of the application then provide a wrapper around scoped lock.
