#
An object of type lock_­guard controls the ownership of a lockable object within a scope.
A lock_­guard object maintains ownership of a lockable object throughout the lock_­guard object's lifetime.
The behavior of a program is undefined if the lockable object referenced by pm does not exist for the entire lifetime of the lock_­guard object.
The supplied Mutex type shall meet the Cpp17BasicLockable requirements ([thread.req.lockable.basic]).
🔗
explicit lock_guard(mutex_type& m);
2
#
Preconditions: If mutex_­type is not a recursive mutex, the calling thread does not own the mutex m.
3
#
Effects: Initializes pm with m.
Calls m.lock().
🔗
lock_guard(mutex_type& m, adopt_lock_t);
4
#
Preconditions: The calling thread owns the mutex m.
5
#
Effects: Initializes pm with m.
6
#
Throws: Nothing.
🔗
~lock_guard();
7
#
Effects: As if by pm.unlock().
