Documentation

This class starts a read operation for the PReadWriteMutex on construction and automatically ends the read operation on destruction.

This is very usefull for constructs such as:

    void func()
    {
      PReadWaitAndSignal mutexWait(myMutex);
      if (condition)
        return;
      do_something();
      if (other_condition)
        return;
      do_something_else();
    }
o PReadWaitAndSignal( const PReadWriteMutex & rw, BOOL start = TRUE )
Create the PReadWaitAndSignal wait instance. This will wait on the specified PReadWriteMutex using the StartRead() function before returning.
Parameters:
rw - PReadWriteMutex descendent to wait/signal.
start - Start read operation on PReadWriteMutex before returning.

o ~PReadWaitAndSignal()
End read operation on the PReadWriteMutex. This will execute the EndRead() function on the PReadWriteMutex that was used in the construction of this instance.
