-To mark a lock (mutex) for event reporting, use the `TracyLockable( type, varname )` macro. Note that the lock must implement a [Lockable concept](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Lockable) (i.e. there's no support for timed mutices). For a concrete example, you would replace the line `std::mutex m_lock` with `TracyLockable( std::mutex, m_lock )`.

For a concrete example, you would replace the line `std::mutex m_lock` with `TracyLockable( std::mutex, m_lock )`. You may use `TracyLockableN( type, varname, description )` to provide a custom lock name.
 
 The standard `std::lock_guard` and `std::unique_lock` wrappers should use the `LockableBase( type )` macro for their template parameter (unless you're using C++17, with improved template argument deduction). For example, `std::lock_guard<LockableBase( std::mutex )> lock( m_lock )`.
