small bug in cond_wait documentation?

Posted on 2009-06-19 05:55:19-07 by markdv1

I was reading the documentation section for cond_wait and I think there might be a small bug there.

If "The cond_wait function takes a locked variable as a parameter.." then shouldn't the cond_wait in the given example

{ lock($counter); cond_wait($count) until $counter == 0; }

be cond_wait($counter) instead of cond_wait($count)?

Good catch. I'll update the docs accordingly for the next release.
