3This is a small helper class to be used with \helpref{wxMutex}{wxmutex}
4objects. A wxMutexLocker acquires a mutex lock in the constructor and releases
5(or unlocks) the mutex in the destructor making it much more difficult to
6forget to release a mutex (which, in general, will promptly lead to serious
7problems). See \helpref{wxMutex}{wxmutex} for an example of wxMutexLocker
8usage.

28Constructs a wxMutexLocker object associated with mutex and locks it.
29Call \helpref{IsLocked}{wxmutexlockerisok} to check if the mutex was
30successfully locked.
