## Detailed Description

Utility class for exception-safe mutex locking.

Usage example:
  {
  Glib::Mutex::Lock lock (mutex); // calls mutex.lock()
  do_something();
  } // the destructor calls mutex.unlock()
  Glib::Mutex::Lock
  Utility class for exception-safe mutex locking.
  Definition thread.h:486
  Glib::Mutex::lock
  void lock()
  Locks the mutex.
  As you can see, the compiler takes care of the unlocking. This is not only exception safe but also much less error-prone. You could even return while still holding the lock and it will be released properly.

Deprecated
  Use Glib::Threads::Mutex::Lock instead.
