Hi,

The documentation says the InterProcessMultiLock follows the same usage as 
“Shared Lock” which is the InterProcessSemaphoreMutex. Aside from these two 
classes defining the same APIs, my assumption was that the multi lock would 
also use the same non-reentrant lock implementation. However, after a test and 
verifying in code, the underlying multi-lock implementation uses 
InterProcessMutex. I have a use case where I have a request thread which 
acquires a lock, but a callback thread is responsible for releasing it. I was 
able to achieve this via the InterProcessSemaphoreMutex and thought I would be 
able to do the same with InterProcessMultilock for multiple locks, but the 
multi-lock requires that the same thread release the lock which it acquired. 
Any suggestions on getting around this?

Thanks,
-Terry
