std::unique_lock::try_lock_for(3) C++ Standard Libary std::unique_lock::try_lock_for(3)

NAME

std::unique_lock::try_lock_for - std::unique_lock::try_lock_for

Synopsis


template< class Rep, class Period >
bool try_lock_for( const std::chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& (since C++11)
timeout_duration );


Tries to lock (i.e., takes ownership of) the associated mutex. Blocks until
specified timeout_duration has elapsed or the lock is acquired, whichever comes
first. On successful lock acquisition returns true, otherwise returns false.
Effectively calls mutex()->try_lock_for(timeout_duration).


This function may block for longer than timeout_duration due to scheduling or
resource contention delays.


The standard recommends that a steady clock is used to measure the duration. If an
implementation uses a system clock instead, the wait time may also be sensitive to
clock adjustments.


std::system_error is thrown if there is no associated mutex or if the mutex is
already locked by this std::unique_lock.

Parameters


timeout_duration - maximum duration to block for

Return value


true if the ownership of the mutex has been acquired successfully, false otherwise.

Exceptions


* Any exceptions thrown by mutex()->try_lock_for(timeout_duration).
* If there is no associated mutex, std::system_error with an error code of
std::errc::operation_not_permitted.
* If the mutex is already locked, std::system_error with an error code of
std::errc::resource_deadlock_would_occur.
