Mutex_m

When 'mutex_m' is required, any object that extends or includes Mutex_m will be treated like a Mutex.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mutex_m'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install mutex_m

Usage

Start by requiring the standard library Mutex_m:

require "mutex_m"

From here you can extend an object with Mutex instance methods:

obj = Object.new
obj.extend Mutex_m

Or mixin Mutex_m into your module to your class inherit Mutex instance methods. You should probably use prepend to mixin (if you use include, you need to make sure that you call super inside initialize).

class Foo
  prepend Mutex_m
  # ...
end

obj = Foo.new
# this obj can be handled like Mutex
