Re: [boost] boost threads: pthread mutex priority inheritance + patches
Ack, no discussion on this since I posted it back in July. In my opensuse packages, I apply the following patch to insure priority inheritence on mutexs. I had to go inside the mutex ctor to do the work. -Jason On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 5:40 PM, Jason Newton <nevion@gmail.com> wrote:

For the moment, the few lines that compose the mutex class are easily copied so that I can do my own business inside the constructor but I expect others will run into this problem down the line and this solution is a bit unsavory. Any better advice?
Actually a private copy of mutex didn't work so well overall as pthread conditions are hard coded to void boost::condition_variable::wait(boost::unique_lock<boost::mutex>&)

There is a proposal to manage with thread attributes
* [@http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/2741 #2741] Proposal to manage portable and non portable thread attributes. I think that we could adopt the same design to manage with mutex attributes. Please could you make a feature request on the Trac system? Best, Vicente
