Feel free to use

Here's a lightweight starvation free (ticket based, no preference) reader-writer lock. It only works with vc++ right now, you'll have to change a _InterlockedCompareExchange() and Sleep() for other platforms but that should be easy. Otherwise it follows the boost model already, but uses scoped_read_lock and scoped_write_lock instead of just scoped_lock. http://dev.int64.org/snips/rwlock.hpp
