Profiling home-grown mutexes

Hi,

Does anybody know if it is possible to get Thread Profiler to profile home-grown spin locks?

I have an app which uses system lock objects but also some spin locks coded within a small set of functions.

I realise that I could temporarily replace them with system lock objects for analysis, but I wondered if anyone had tried to do this.

Look for the 'User-Level Synchronization API' in the help (under API Support). It should do what you want.
