I know this topic comes up a bit and I’ve done a bit more research. Is a contributing reason that Go does not have re-entrant locks is that Go does not have any way to get Go routine identity? It seems you cannot write a reentrant lock - at least not with the typical syntax - without specialized runtime support.
The only public way I can think of is something like somelock.Lock(ctx) But then you need to make every method accept a context.Context instance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
