The class lock_guard
is a mutex wrapper that provides a convenient RAII-style mechanism for owning a mutex or several mutexes (since C++17) for the duration of a scoped block.
When a lock_guard
object is created, it attempts to take ownership of the mutex it is given. When control leaves the scope in which the lock_guard
object was created, the lock_guard
is destructed and the mutex is released.
If several mutexes are given, deadlock avoidance algorithm is used as if by std::lock. |
(since C++17) |
The lock_guard
class is non-copyable.

[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <thread> #include <mutex> #include <iostream> int g_i = 0; std::mutex g_i_mutex; // protects g_i void safe_increment() { std::lock_guard<std::mutex> lock(g_i_mutex); ++g_i; std::cout << std::this_thread::get_id() << ": " << g_i << '\n'; // g_i_mutex is automatically released when lock // goes out of scope } int main() { std::cout << __func__ << ": " << g_i << '\n'; std::thread t1(safe_increment); std::thread t2(safe_increment); t1.join(); t2.join(); std::cout << __func__ << ": " << g_i << '\n'; }
Possible output:
main: 0 140641306900224: 1 140641298507520: 2 main: 2
