\section{\class{wxCriticalSectionLocker}}\label{wxcriticalsectionlocker}
This is a small helper class to be used with \helpref{wxCriticalSection}{wxcriticalsection}
objects. A wxCriticalSectionLocker enters the critical section in the
constructor and leaves it in the destructor making it much more difficult to
forget to leave a critical section (which, in general, will lead to serious
and difficult to debug problems).
Example of using it:
\begin{verbatim}
void SetFoo()
{
// gs_critSect is some (global) critical section guarding access to the
// object "foo"
wxCriticalSectionLocker locker(gs_critSect);
if ( ... )
{
// do something
...
return;
}
// do something else
...
return;
}
\end{verbatim}
Without wxCriticalSectionLocker, you would need to remember to manually leave
the critical section before each {\tt return}.
