=head1 NAME
Win32::Mutex - Use Win32 mutex objects from Perl
=head1 SYNOPSIS
require Win32::Mutex;
$mutex = Win32::Mutex->new($initial,$name);
$mutex->wait;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module allows access to the Win32 mutex objects. The C<wait>
method and C<wait_all> & C<wait_any> functions are inherited from the
L<"Win32::IPC"> module.
=head2 Methods
=over 4
=item $mutex = Win32::Mutex->new([$initial, [$name]])
Constructor for a new mutex object. If C<$initial> is true, requests
immediate ownership of the mutex (default false). If C<$name> is
omitted, creates an unnamed mutex object.
If C<$name> signifies an existing mutex object, then C<$initial> is
ignored and the object is opened.
=item $mutex = Win32::Mutex->open($name)
Constructor for opening an existing mutex object.
=item $mutex->release
Release ownership of a C<$mutex>. You should have obtained ownership
of the mutex through C<new> or one of the wait functions. Returns
true if successful.
=item $mutex->wait([$timeout])
Wait for ownership of C<$mutex>. See L<"Win32::IPC">.
=back
=head2 Deprecated Functions and Methods
B<Win32::Mutex> still supports the ActiveWare syntax, but its use is
deprecated.
=over 4
=item Create($MutObj,$Initial,$Name)
Use C<$MutObj = Win32::Mutex-E<gt>new($Initial,$Name)> instead.
=item Open($MutObj,$Name)
Use C<$MutObj = Win32::Mutex-E<gt>open($Name)> instead.
=item $MutObj->Release()
Use C<$MutObj-E<gt>release> instead.
