ReentrantMutex

==============

A simple gem that implements a [reentrant mutex](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reentrant_mutex).

Installation

------------

1. Install it `gem install reentrant_mutex`

2. Require it `require 'reentrant_mutex'`

3. Use it

Usage

-----

This works exactly like a normal mutex except that you can lock a mutex you already have locked.

```ruby

require 'reentrant_mutex'

mutex = ReentrantMutex.new

mutex.synchronize do

  # . . .

end

```
