Documentation Home >> Headers >> <jss/guards.hpp> Header >> jss::scoped_lock class template

The jss::scoped_lock class template provides a basic lock ownership wrapper. It is directly equivalent to the jss::lock_guard class template, except it uses the name used by the C++17 standard. The type of mutex being locked is specified by template parameter Mutex, and must meet the Lockable requirements. The specified mutex is locked in the constructor and unlocked in the destructor. This provides a simple means of locking a mutex for a block of code and ensuring that the mutex is unlocked when the block is left, whether that is by running off the end, by the use of a control flow statement such as break or return, or by throwing an exception.

Instances of jss::scoped_lock are neither MoveConstructible, CopyConstructible or CopyAssignable.

template <class ... LockableTypes>
class scoped_lock
{
public:
    typedef LockableTypes mutex_type; // If LockableTypes is a single type

    explicit scoped_lock(LockableTypes& ... m);
    scoped_lock(LockableTypes& ... m, adopt_lock_t);
    ~scoped_lock();

    scoped_lock(scoped_lock const& ) = delete;
    scoped_lock& operator=(
        scoped_lock const& ) = delete;
};
