Hello,

Is there a specific way of initializing the boost::mutex objects? Here
is the sequence I have been using:

Instantiation of the mutex
boost::mutex                            m_CmdMutex;

Then try to lock it
m_CmdMutex.lock();

It looks like every time I try to lock a mutex I lock my thread.
Anything else needs to be done?

Thanks,
Jean
