When 'mutex_m' is required, any object that extends or includes Mutex_m will be treated like a Mutex.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'mutex_m'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install mutex_m
Start by requiring the standard library Mutex_m:
require "mutex_m"
From here you can extend an object with Mutex instance methods:
obj = Object.new
obj.extend Mutex_m
Or mixin Mutex_m into your module to your class inherit Mutex instance methods.
You should probably use prepend
to mixin (if you use include
, you need to
make sure that you call super
inside initialize
).
class Foo
prepend Mutex_m
# ...
end
obj = Foo.new
# this obj can be handled like Mutex
