I am using boost 1.47 on linux/solaris(/hpux).

Can you please tell me, how to find out the lock owner of a mutex (named_recursive_mutex) ?

(in case i can't equire the lock within a timeout).

In posix' pthread_mutex_t there is a

 int __owner;

which holds the thread id (gettid())

But i can't find it in boost::interprocess.

Ok. there might be different base implementations for mutex/threads/etc.

But is there a "boost ID", that can be logged by application using boost

which might be a linux/unix thread id, but maybe something else?

- many thanks!

best regards,
Frank
