bool try_lock(); | (since C++11) |
Tries to lock the mutex. Returns immediately. On successful lock acquisition returns true
, otherwise returns false
.
This function is allowed to fail spuriously and return false
even if the mutex is not currently locked by any other thread.
If try_lock
is called by a thread that already owns the mutex
, the behavior is undefined.
Prior unlock()
operation on the same mutex synchronizes-with (as defined in std::memory_order
) this operation if it returns true
. Note that prior lock()
does not synchronize with this operation if it returns false
.
Parameters
(none).
Return value
true
if the lock was acquired successfully, otherwise false
.
Exceptions
(none).
