How do I make a critical section with Boost?

Question

For my cross-platform application I have started to use Boost, but I can\'t understand how I can implement code to reproduce behavior of Win32\'s critical section or .Net\'s

Answer 1

With boost you can use boost::lock_guard<> class:

class test
{
public:
 void testMethod()
 {
  // this section is not locked
  {
   boost::lock_guard lock(m_guard);
   // this section is locked
  }
  // this section is not locked
 }
private:
    boost::recursive_mutex m_guard;
};

PS These classes located in Boost.Thread library.
