Hi all,

i was supposed to use boost::mutex in my multithreaded app, and came 
across a problem with its scheduling policy. if more than one thread is 
going to use the mutex object, how can we implement the FIFO scheduling 
policy? i need it so that other threads waiting for the mutex to be 
unlocked can acquire it in order in which they waited on the mutex that 
is accessed through boost::mutex::scoped_lock.
