[sipX-dev] Critical sections

["Dale Worley" <dworley@xxxxxxxxxx>]

There are two common implementations of critical sections in sipXecs:
        
        OsBSem semaphore;
        ...
        {
            OsLock lock(semaphore);
            <critical section>;
        }
        ...
        
and

        OsMutex semaphore;
        ...
        semaphore.acquire();
        <critical section>;
        semaphore.release();
        
Is one preferable to the other?
