Detailed Description

A convenience object for lexical scope based synchronization.

ScopedReadLock locks a ReadWriteLock for read at construction time and unlocks it when it is destroyed.

A block of code can be conveniently protected by a ScopedReadLock by using the synchronized_read() macro, e.g.:

 ReadWriteLock rwlock;

 synchronized_read(rwlock)
 {
   // readers-exclusive code here
 }
