An object of type shared_lock controls the shared ownership of a lockable object within a scope. Shared ownership of the lockable object may be acquired at construction or after construction, and may be transferred, after acquisition, to another shared_lock object. Objects of type shared_lock are not copyable but are movable. The behavior of a program is undefined if the contained pointer pm is not null and the lockable object pointed to by pm does not exist for the entire remaining lifetime ([basic.life]) of the shared_lock object. The supplied Mutex type shall meet the shared mutex requirements ([thread.sharedtimedmutex.requirements]).

Note: shared_lock<Mutex> meets the TimedLockable requirements ([thread.req.lockable.timed]).  — end note ]

30.4.2.3.1 shared_lock constructors, destructor, and assignment [thread.lock.shared.cons]

shared_lock() noexcept;

Effects: Constructs an object of type shared_lock.

Postconditions: pm == nullptr and owns == false.

explicit shared_lock(mutex_type& m);

Requires: The calling thread does not own the mutex for any ownership mode.

Effects: Constructs an object of type shared_lock and calls m.lock_shared().

Postconditions: pm == &m and owns == true.

shared_lock(mutex_type& m, defer_lock_t) noexcept;

Effects: Constructs an object of type shared_lock.

Postconditions: pm == &m and owns == false.

shared_lock(mutex_type& m, try_to_lock_t);

Requires: The calling thread does not own the mutex for any ownership mode.

Effects: Constructs an object of type shared_lock and calls m.try_lock_shared().

Postconditions: pm == &m and owns == res where res is the value returned by the call to m.try_lock_shared().

shared_lock(mutex_type& m, adopt_lock_t);

Requires: The calling thread has shared ownership of the mutex.

Effects: Constructs an object of type shared_lock.

Postconditions: pm == &m and owns == true.

template <class Clock, class Duration> shared_lock(mutex_type& m, const chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& abs_time);

Requires: The calling thread does not own the mutex for any ownership mode.

Effects: Constructs an object of type shared_lock and calls m.try_lock_shared_until(abs_time).

Postconditions: pm == &m and owns == res where res is the value returned by the call to m.try_lock_shared_until(abs_time).

template <class Rep, class Period> shared_lock(mutex_type& m, const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& rel_time);

Requires: The calling thread does not own the mutex for any ownership mode.

Effects: Constructs an object of type shared_lock and calls m.try_lock_shared_for(rel_time).

Postconditions: pm == &m and owns == res where res is the value returned by the call to m.try_lock_shared_for(rel_time).

~shared_lock();

Effects: If owns calls pm->unlock_shared().

shared_lock(shared_lock&& sl) noexcept;

Postconditions: pm == &sl_p.pm and owns == sl_p.owns (where sl_p is the state of sl just prior to this construction), sl.pm == nullptr and sl.owns == false.

shared_lock& operator=(shared_lock&& sl) noexcept;

Effects: If owns calls pm->unlock_shared().

Postconditions: pm == &sl_p.pm and owns == sl_p.owns (where sl_p is the state of sl just prior to this assignment), sl.pm == nullptr and sl.owns == false.

30.4.2.3.2 shared_lock locking [thread.lock.shared.locking]

void lock();

Effects: pm->lock_shared().

Postconditions: owns == true.

Throws: Any exception thrown by pm->lock_shared(). system_error if an exception is required ([thread.req.exception]). system_error with an error condition of operation_not_permitted if pm is nullptr. system_error with an error condition of resource_deadlock_would_occur if on entry owns is true.

bool try_lock();

Effects: pm->try_lock_shared().

Returns: The value returned by the call to pm->try_lock_shared().

Postconditions: owns == res, where res is the value returned by the call to pm->try_lock_shared().

Throws: Any exception thrown by pm->try_lock_shared(). system_error if an exception is required ([thread.req.exception]). system_error with an error condition of operation_not_permitted if pm is nullptr. system_error with an error condition of resource_deadlock_would_occur if on entry owns is true.

template <class Clock, class Duration> bool try_lock_until(const chrono::time_point<Clock, Duration>& abs_time);

Effects: pm->try_lock_shared_until(abs_time).

Returns: The value returned by the call to pm->try_lock_shared_until(abs_time).

Postconditions: owns == res, where res is the value returned by the call to pm->try_lock_shared_until(abs_time).

Throws: Any exception thrown by pm->try_lock_shared_until(abs_time). system_error if an exception is required ([thread.req.exception]). system_error with an error condition of operation_not_permitted if pm is nullptr. system_error with an error condition of resource_deadlock_would_occur if on entry owns is true.

template <class Rep, class Period> bool try_lock_for(const chrono::duration<Rep, Period>& rel_time);

Effects: pm->try_lock_shared_for(rel_time).

Returns: The value returned by the call to pm->try_lock_shared_for(rel_time).

Postconditions: owns == res, where res is the value returned by the call to pm->try_lock_shared_for(rel_time).

Throws: Any exception thrown by pm->try_lock_shared_for(rel_time). system_error if an exception is required ([thread.req.exception]). system_error with an error condition of operation_not_permitted if pm is nullptr. system_error with an error condition of resource_deadlock_would_occur if on entry owns is true.

void unlock();

Effects: pm->unlock_shared().

Postconditions: owns == false.

Throws: system_error when an exception is required ([thread.req.exception]).

Error conditions:

  • operation_not_permitted — if on entry owns is false.

30.4.2.3.3 shared_lock modifiers [thread.lock.shared.mod]

void swap(shared_lock& sl) noexcept;

Effects: Swaps the data members of *this and sl.

mutex_type* release() noexcept;

Returns: The previous value of pm.

Postconditions: pm == nullptr and owns == false.
