If the Synchronizer is not locked then lock it, set the writer count to one and mark the owner as the current thread. If the Synchronizer is already locked by the current thread then increment the writer count and return immediately. If the Synchronizer is already locked for reading then wait until it is unlocked.

function SynchronizerWriterUnlock(Synchronizer:TSynchronizerHandle):LongWord;
Description: Unlock an existing Synchronizer entry
| Synchronizer
|
Synchronizer to unlock
|
| Return
|
ERROR_SUCCESS if completed or another error code on failure
|
| Note
|
If the Synchronizer is locked for writing by the current thread then decrement the count. If the count is greater than zero then return immediately. If the count reaches zero then unlock the Synchronizer and release all reader threads waiting for it to be unlocked or the first writer thread waiting for it to be unlocked. If the Synchronizer is locked for reading then return an error. If the Synchronizer is locked for writing by another thread then return an error. If the Synchronizer is not locked then return an error.

function SynchronizerWriterConvert(Synchronizer:TSynchronizerHandle):LongWord;
Description: Convert a writer lock on an existing Synchronizer entry to a reader lock
| Synchronizer
|
Synchronizer to convert
|
| Return
|
ERROR_SUCCESS if completed or another error code on failure
|
| Note
|
If the Synchronizer is locked for writing by the current thread and the count is one then decrement the count. If the count is greater than one then return an error. If the count reaches zero then convert to reader lock and release all waiting reader threads. If the Synchronizer is locked for reading then return an error. If the Synchronizer is not locked then return an error. Since writer locks are recursive, caller must ensure that one and only one writer lock is held by the current thread.
