On first iteration:
* Writer gains the lock * Reader is blocked while trying to obtain lock * Writer calls condition.notify_all() * Writer calls condition.wait(), thus releasing the mutex and blocking itself until condition.notify_*() * Reader is unblocked * Reader calls condition.wait(), releasing the mutex and blocking itself until condition.notify_*()

i just merely copied the example from this linkhttp://en.highscore.de/cpp/boost/(Multithread section exercises ) ! so this means the example is faulty ?
I couldn't see anything similar to your posted code there - are you referring to section 6.5? Unless my thinking's gone inside-out (which isn't unheard of..) then I believe the process I described is what is happening in your case. --rob
