Detailed Description

The QMutex class provides access serialization between threads.

The purpose of a QMutex is to protect an object, data structure or section of code so that only one thread can access it at a time (this is similar to the Java synchronized keyword). It is usually best to use a mutex with a QMutexLocker since this makes it easy to ensure that locking and unlocking are performed consistently.

For example, say there is a method that prints a message to the user on two lines:

    int number = 6;

    void method1()
    {
        number *= 5;
        number /= 4;
    }

    void method2()
    {
        number *= 3;
        number /= 2;
    }

If these two methods are called in succession, the following happens:

    // method1()
    number *= 5;        // number is now 30
    number /= 4;        // number is now 7

    // method2()
    number *= 3;        // number is now 21
    number /= 2;        // number is now 10

If these two methods are called simultaneously from two threads then the following sequence could result:

    // Thread 1 calls method1()
    number *= 5;        // number is now 30

    // Thread 2 calls method2().
    //
    // Most likely Thread 1 has been put to sleep by the operating
    // system to allow Thread 2 to run.
    number *= 3;        // number is now 90
    number /= 2;        // number is now 45

    // Thread 1 finishes executing.
    number /= 4;        // number is now 11, instead of 10

If we add a mutex, we should get the result we want:

    QMutex mutex;
    int number = 6;

    void method1()
    {
        mutex.lock();
        number *= 5;
        number /= 4;
        mutex.unlock();
    }

    void method2()
    {
        mutex.lock();
        number *= 3;
        number /= 2;
        mutex.unlock();
    }

Then only one thread can modify number at any given time and the result is correct. This is a trivial example, of course, but applies to any other case where things need to happen in a particular sequence.

When you call lock() in a thread, other threads that try to call lock() in the same place will block until the thread that got the lock calls unlock(). A non-blocking alternative to lock() is tryLock().

Member Type Documentation

enum QMutex::RecursionMode

ConstantValueDescription
QMutex::Recursive1In this mode, a thread can lock the same mutex multiple times and the mutex won't be unlocked until a corresponding number of unlock() calls have been made.
QMutex::NonRecursive0In this mode, a thread may only lock a mutex once.

See also QMutex().


Member Function Documentation

QMutex::QMutex ( RecursionMode mode = NonRecursive )

Constructs a new mutex. The mutex is created in an unlocked state.

If mode is QMutex::Recursive, a thread can lock the same mutex multiple times and the mutex won't be unlocked until a corresponding number of unlock() calls have been made. The default is QMutex::NonRecursive.

See also lock() and unlock().

QMutex::~QMutex ()

Destroys the mutex.

Warning: Destroying a locked mutex may result in undefined behavior.

void QMutex::lock ()

Locks the mutex. If another thread has locked the mutex then this call will block until that thread has unlocked it.

See also unlock().

bool QMutex::tryLock ()

Attempts to lock the mutex. If the lock was obtained, this function returns true. If another thread has locked the mutex, this function returns false immediately.

If the lock was obtained, the mutex must be unlocked with unlock() before another thread can successfully lock it.

See also lock() and unlock().

void QMutex::unlock ()

Unlocks the mutex. Attempting to unlock a mutex in a different thread to the one that locked it results in an error. Unlocking a mutex that is not locked results in undefined behavior.

See also lock().
