Hi,
Consider the following situations:
{ unique_lock<mutex> lock(smtx);
// ... some writing operations
{ // non locked block reverse_lock< unique_lock<mutex> > rlock(lock); // ... some code not needing the mutex to be locked } // locked again
// ... }
Do you think this usage is souhaitable or is this source of errors?
I've had to do it myself a few times. I think it's worthwhile adding it to the library in order to ensure it is done as safely as possible.
