/*
 * @private
 * dds_reader_lock_samples: Returns number of samples in read cache and locks the
 * reader cache to make sure that the samples content doesn't change.
 * Because the cache is locked, you should be able to read/take without having to
 * lock first. This is done by passing the DDS_READ_WITHOUT_LOCK value to the
 * read/take call as maxs. Then the read/take will not lock but still unlock.
 *
 * CycloneDDS doesn't support a read/take that just returns all
 * available samples issue #74. As a work around to support LENGTH_UNLIMITED in C++.
 * dds_reader_lock_samples() and DDS_READ_WITHOUT_LOCK are needed.
