You do this by providing a subclass of the <code>TSE3::Impl::MutexImpl</code> class and providing it to the TSE3 library (using the <code>TSE3::Impl::Mutex</code> class). <p> The KDOC documentation contains clear details on how to do this (look at the MutexImpl and Mutex class. If you have built the TSE3 documentation (see <a href="KDOC.html">here</a> for details) then the following links will take you directly to the documentation: <ul> <li><a href="api/TSE3__Impl__MutexImpl.html">MutexImpl</a> <li><a href="api/TSE3__Impl__Mutex.html">Mutex</a> </ul> <!--TSE3-FOOTER--> </body> </html>
