Re: [Boost-users] boost::condition questions

Ok, I see now in scoped_lock the following:

operator const void*() const { return m_locked ? this : 0; }

So, in wait() where they check "if( !lock) {...}", they're actually
checking to see if the lock has locked the mutex.

However, for the reasons I mentioned in my earlier post, this still
seems perilous. Can someone explain?

Thanks,
Adam
