reader_writer_lock::unlock Method

Unlocks the reader-writer lock based on who locked it, reader or writer.

_CRTIMP void unlock();

Remarks

If there are writers waiting on the lock, the release of the lock will always go to the next writer in FIFO order. This lock is biased towards writers and can starve readers under a continuous load of writers.
