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?

Each thread gets its own handle from the call to CreateMutex, which it then must close, so this is not a problem. Anthony -- Anthony Williams Software Developer Just Software Solutions Ltd http://www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk
