Class that models Mutex Concept using underlying OS locks.
class mutex;
#include "tbb/mutex.h"
A mutex models the Mutex Concept. It is a wrapper around OS calls that provide mutual exclusion. The advantages of using mutex instead of the OS calls are:
Portable across all operating systems supported by Intel® Threading Building Blocks.
Releases the lock if an exception is thrown from the protected region of code.
