NAME

ACE_Remote_Mutex - Proxy for acquiring, renewing, and releasing a distributed mutex.

SYNOPSIS

#include <ACE/Remote_Tokens.h>

class ACE_Remote_Mutex : public ACE_Remote_Token_Proxy { public: ACE_Remote_Mutex (void); ACE_Remote_Mutex ( const ASYS_TCHAR *token_name, int ignore_deadlock = 0, int debug = 0 ); void dump (void) const; virtual ACE_Token_Proxy *clone (void) const; protected: virtual ACE_Tokens *create_token (const ASYS_TCHAR *name); };

DESCRIPTION

This is the remote equivalent to ACE_Local_Mutex. The Remote_Mutex class offers methods for acquiring, renewing, and releasing a distributed synchronization mutex. Similar to ACE_Local_Mutex, ACE_Remote_Token_Proxy offers recursive acquisition, FIFO waiter ordering, and deadlock detection. It depends on the Token Server for its distributed synchronization semantics.
