ObtainLock

This macro obtains a thread-based lock for the specified session for the duration of the function in which it is declared.

#define ObtainLock(Vi)

Parameters

Vi: [in] ViSession handle for the driver session.

Remarks

This macro declares a local instance of a special SessionLock class. The constructor of the SessionLock class obtains a session lock on the session indicated by the Vi parameter. When the function containing the ObtainLock macro completes, the SessionLock destructor runs and the session is unlocked.
