Agreed. An RWLock has a benefit when there are multiple *read* threads trying to access the same data, frequently and at the same time and such access is not short in time. The added benefit is fairness to the writer. A mutex is much simpler. For the case here, a mutex suffices: the accesses are short and infrequent. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
