"Deadlock: The Problem and a Solution" Book Excerpt Online
Wednesday, 01 October 2008
An excerpt from my book C++ Concurrency in Action
has been published on CodeGuru. Deadlock:
the Problem and a Solution describes what deadlock is and how the
std::lock() function can be used to avoid it where
multiple locks can be acquired at once. There are also some simple
guidelines for avoiding deadlock in the first place.
The C++0x library facilities mentioned in the article
(std::mutex, std::lock(),
std::lock_guard and std::unique_lock) are
all available from the Boost
Thread Library in release 1.36.0 and later.
