@Fré Dumazy Use Mutex

[Fré Dumazy]

how should it be used? I'm looking at the api but I don't get it really... 🤔

[elizarov]

val mutex = Mute() 

mutex.withLock { // just like synchronized(lock)
    // critical section
}

[Fré Dumazy]

oh okay, so I shouldn't really use the lock, tryLock etc methods for a default use case?

[elizarov]

You could, but you should not

[elizarov]

withLock covers the typical use

[Fré Dumazy]

It wasn't easy but I finally figured everything out after testing in a new empty project. I also watched your talk "Kotlin Coroutines Reloaded", which helped me understand it. Thanks for that 🙂
