# ACE\_Remote\_WLock(3)

Proxy for acquiring, renewing, and releasing a distributed writers lock.

## NAME

ACE\_Remote\_WLock -  Proxy for acquiring, renewing, and releasing a distributed writers lock.

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <ACE/Remote_Tokens.h>
class ACE_Remote_WLock : public ACE_Remote_Token_Proxy
{
  public:
    ACE_Remote_WLock (void);
    ACE_Remote_WLock (
        const ASYS_TCHAR *token_name,
        int ignore_deadlock = 0,
        int debug = 0
        );
    ACE_Remote_WLock (const ACE_Remote_WLock &mutex);
    void dump (void) const;
    virtual int type (void) const;
    virtual ACE_Token_Proxy *clone (void) const;
  protected:
    virtual ACE_Tokens *create_token (const ASYS_TCHAR *name);
};
```

## DESCRIPTION

Shields applications from details of interacting with the ACE\_Token\_Server.  The token\_name\_ is just the string that the Token Server uses to identify the token.  The client\_id\_ (also used by the Token Server,) identifies the owner of the token and is used for deadlock detection.

## PUBLIC MEMBERS

```
ACE_Remote_WLock (void);
```

```
ACE_Remote_WLock (
    const ASYS_TCHAR *token_name,
    int ignore_deadlock = 0,
    int debug = 0
    );
```

```
ACE_Remote_WLock (const ACE_Remote_WLock &mutex);
```

```
void dump (void) const;
```

Dump the state of the class.

```
virtual int type (void) const;
```

Returns ACE\_RW\_Token::WLOCK;

```
virtual ACE_Token_Proxy *clone (void) const;
```

Return deep copy.

## PROTECTED MEMBERS

```
virtual ACE_Tokens *create_token (const ASYS_TCHAR *name);
```

Make the correct type of ACE\_Tokens.  This is called by the Token Manager.
