3.2.3 omp_set_lock and omp_set_nest_lock Functions

 

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

Each of these functions blocks the thread executing the function until the specified lock is available and then sets the lock. A simple lock is available if it is unlocked. A nestable lock is available if it is unlocked or if it is already owned by the thread executing the function. The format is as follows:

#include <omp.h>  
void omp_set_lock(omp_lock_t *lock);  
void omp_set_nest_lock(omp_nest_lock_t *lock);  

For a simple lock, the argument to the omp_set_lock function must point to an initialized lock variable. Ownership of the lock is granted to the thread executing the function.

For a nestable lock, the argument to the omp_set_nest_lock function must point to an initialized lock variable. The nesting count is incremented, and the thread is granted, or retains, ownership of the lock.
