[section:ext_locked_streams Externally Locked Streams - EXPERIMENTAL]

[warning These features are experimental and subject to change in future versions. There are not too much tests yet, so it is possible that you can find out some trivial bugs :(] 

[note These features are based on the [@http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2013/n3535.html [*N3535 - C++ Streams Mutex]] C++1y proposal, even if the library proposes al alternative interface.]

`stream_guard` is a model of __StrictLock.

[//////////////////////////////////////////////////]
[section:constructor `stream_guard(mutex_type & m)`]

[[Effects:] [Stores a reference to `m`. Takes ownership of the lock state of
`m`.]]

[[Throws:] [Nothing.]]

[section:externally_locked_stream Class `externally_locked_stream `]

  #include <boost/thread/externally_locked_stream.hpp>
  namespace boost
  {
    template <typename Stream, typename RecursiveMutex>
    class externally_locked_stream: public externally_locked<Stream&, RecursiveMutex>
    {
    public:
      // Constructors, Assignment and Destructors
      externally_locked_stream(externally_locked_stream const&) = delete;
      externally_locked_stream& operator=(externally_locked_stream const&) = delete;

      // Modifiers  
      stream_guard<Stream, RecursiveMutex> hold();

    };
  }

`externally_locked_stream` cloaks a reference to a stream of type `Stream`, and actually
provides full access to that object through the `get` member functions, provided you
pass a reference to a strict lock object.

[section:hold `hold()`]

[variablelist

[[Returns:] [A stream_guard which will hold the mutex during it lifetime .]]
