9051 :: Very need to understand of locks and condition

• alexsad (orginal) [2022-03-27T22:28:09+02:00] view original

  Unfortunately, docs on https://nim-lang.org/docs/locks.html is not enough for me.

  E.g. I don't understand an interaction between 'acquire(lock)'/'release(lock)' and 'wait(cond, lock)' :(

  I'll be very grateful to anyone who provide me some good explanation (or link) or example code.

  Thanks

  This SO has decent explanations that differentiate locks (mutex) and condition variables: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1055398/differences-between-conditional-variables-mutexes-and-locks
