>
>
> The Guard and RWGuard classes are defined much like the Synchronized class,
> but there are also two macros defined, Guard(m) and RWGuard(m) which cause a
> compile error if you try to declare a Guard or RWGuard on the stack.
> To me, these look like scoped mutex locks that would be used like this:
> {
> Guard g(myMutex);
> }
> which is again just like the use of Synchronized.
> Have I missed something? What is the intended usage for these classes? I need
> to know because I'm writing tests for them so I can test my Boost Mutex and
> ReadWriteMutex implementations.
