## NAME

ACE_Thread_Mutex - ACE_Thread_Mutex wrapper (only valid for threads in the same process).

## SYNOPSIS

    #include <ace/Synch.h>

    class ACE_Thread_Mutex
    {
      public:
        friend class ACE_Condition_Thread_Mutex;
        ACE_Thread_Mutex (LPCTSTR name = 0, void *arg = 0);
        ~ACE_Thread_Mutex (void);
        int remove (void);
        int acquire (void);
        int tryacquire (void);
        int release (void);
        int acquire_read (void);
        int acquire_write (void);
        int tryacquire_read (void);
        int tryacquire_write (void);
        const ACE_thread_mutex_t &lock (void) const;
        void dump (void) const;
        ACE_ALLOC_HOOK_DECLARE;
        ACE_thread_mutex_t lock_;
        int removed_;
      private:
        void operator= (const ACE_Thread_Mutex &);
        ACE_Thread_Mutex (const ACE_Thread_Mutex &);
    };
