# std::shared_mutex::try_lock_shared_until

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | thread‎ | shared mutex

template< class Clock, class Duration > bool try_lock_shared_until( const std::chrono::time_point<Clock,Duration>& timeout_time ); |  | (since C++14)

Tries to lock the mutex in shared mode. Blocks until specified `timeout_time` has been reached or the lock is acquired, whichever comes first. On successful lock acquisition returns true, otherwise returns false.

If `timeout_time` has already passed, this function behaves like try_lock_shared().

The clock tied to `timeout_time` is used, which means that adjustments of the clock are taken into account. Thus, the maximum duration of the block might, but might not, be less or more than timeout_time - Clock::now() at the time of the call, depending on the direction of the adjustment. The function also may block for longer than until after `timeout_time` has been reached due to scheduling or resource contention delays.

As with try_lock_shared(), this function is allowed to fail spuriously and return false even if the mutex was not locked by any other thread at some point before `timeout_time`.

Prior unlock() operation on the same mutex synchronizes-with (as defined in std::memory_order) this operation if it returns true.

If `try_lock_shared_until` is called by a thread that already owns the `mutex` in any mode (shared or exclusive), the behavior is undefined.

### [edit] Parameters

timeout_time | - | maximum time point to block until

### [edit] Return value

true if the shared lock ownership was acquired successfully, otherwise false.

### [edit] Exceptions

Any exception thrown by clock, time_point, or duration during the execution (clocks, time points, and durations provided by the standard library never throw)
