Doesn't that argue for the case of making the "key" that indicates that the lock should be "non-locking" more explicit than a bool? IOW, if one is rarely going to write "scoped_lock(m, false)," then the meaning of "false" is even more obscure and "non_locking" is even more appropriate.
"non_locking" is a terribly obscure name to associate with a lock. I really think "deferred" works well. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
