class Mutex
class ScopedLock
definition of ScopedLock;
class ThreadLocalDataHolder
This class holds Thread local data of type T, i.e.

typedef boost::mutex Mutex
Dummy type 'int' for Mutex.
typedef boost::mutex::scoped_lock ScopedLock
Dummy type 'int' defintion of ScopedLock;.

static std::string getThreadId ()
Return an identifier for the current thread.

Dummy type 'int' for Mutex. A simple, non recursive Mutex.

Yes, this adds a bit of overhead in the for of extra memory, but unfortunately 'void' is illegal.

Equivalent to Boost.Threads boost::mutex

Dummy type 'int' defintion of ScopedLock;. A simple 'resource acquisition is initialization' idiom type lock for Mutex.

Equivalent to Boost.Threads boost::scoped_lock.

Return an identifier for the current thread. returns the thread ID

What these identifiers look like is completely up to the underlying thread library.

What these identifiers look like is completely up to the underlying thread library. OmniThreads returns the POSIX thread Id.
