Method

GLibMutexlock

Declaration [src]

void
g_mutex_lock (
  GMutex* mutex
)

Description [src]

Locks mutex. If mutex is already locked by another thread, the current thread will block until mutex is unlocked by the other thread.

GMutex is neither guaranteed to be recursive nor to be non-recursive. As such, calling g_mutex_lock() on a GMutex that has already been locked by the same thread results in undefined behaviour (including but not limited to deadlocks).
