/****
|
|
*
|
|
* Some plugin services may be called from within a LW render thread which
|
|
* implies a need for methods for a plugin to protect its global data. The
|
|
* MTUtil functions provide that service thus allowing a plugin to be threaad
|
|
* safe.
|
|
*
|
|
* USAGE:
|
|
*
|
|
* create - this method returns a LWMTUtilID which must be passed to the lock and
|
|
* unlock methods. Each MTUtilID allows up to 10 independent mutexes
|
|
* (binary semaphores) to be used, indexed 0 - 9. Return NULL on failure.
|
|
*
|
|
* lock - takes a MTUtilID and a mutex index and blocks until the mutex becomes
|
|
* available. Returns success.
|
|
*
|
|
* unlock - releases the mutex specified by the index. Returns success.
