Re: [boost] call_once on win32

I have come across another problem:

You might try to CloseHandle on the mutex while another thread is still waiting on this. While the documentation is explicit about a dying thread that did not realease a mutex he had a hold on (it is abandoned then), I could nothing find for the other case.

Any ideas?

I don't think that's a problem, if the other thread is waiting on the mutex then it has it's own handle to the mutex open, so the mutex doesn't actually get deleted as a system object until the last waiting thread has completed it's wait and closed it's own handle. John.
