[Boost-users] threads / scoped_lock

Hi,

as I understand the scoped_lock, it locks every ressource in a code block. What if I dont want to lock a ressource all the time the method is running? Do I have to create a new method?

Example:

boost::mutex a_mutex;
...
{
        boost::mutex::scoped_lock lock(a_mutex);
        cou<<"bla";

        //much of code where cout dont has to be locked
        ...
}

Torsten
