Method Thread.Mutex()->future_lock()

Method future_lock

Concurrent.Future(< Thread.MutexKey >) future_lock()

Description

This function is similar to lock(), but will return a Concurrent.Future(<Thread.MutexKey>) that will complete successfully when the Mutex is locked.

Note

Avoid having multiple future_lock's for different Mutexes pending concurrently in the same conceptual thread as this will likely cause dead-locks.
