BaseContext :: lockThis - Lock context object
The function is used to lock a context object. Locking becomes necessary, when synchronization of context resources between different threads is requested, since context instances are not thread save.
When the context handle does not refer to a valid context instance the function throws an exception.
Implementation details
BaseContext :: lockThis ( bool bWait )
The function checks, whether the context is locked or not. When the context object is already locked, the function returns an error (bWait=false) or waits until the context object becomes available (bWait=true).
- bWait
- Wait option
When true is passed, the submitting process or thread is forced to wait un til the submitted process or thread has finished.
