The calling thread is blocked until the lock is available. If the lock is already held by the current thread, the nesting count for the lock is incremented. :samp:`{C/C++}:` ============ ================================================== *Prototype*: ``void omp_set_nest_lock(omp_nest_lock_t *lock);`` ============ ================================================== :samp:`{Fortran}:` ============ ====================================================== *Interface*: ``subroutine omp_set_nest_lock(nvar)`` ``integer(omp_nest_lock_kind), intent(inout) :: nvar`` ============ ====================================================== :samp:`{See also}:` omp_init_nest_lock, omp_unset_nest_lock :samp:`{Reference}:` `OpenMP specification v4.5 `_, Section 3.3.4.
