Comparable to an 'IORef' with -- more advanced synchronization mechanisms. The value stored inside the 'RWVar' -- can be read and used by multiple threads at the same time. Concurrent -- computations inside a 'with' \"block\" observe the same value. -- -- Observing and changing the contents of an 'RWVar' are mutually -- exclusive. The 'with' function will block if 'modify' is active and -- vice-versa. Furthermore 'with' is fully sequential and will also -- block on concurrent calls of 'modify'. -- -- The following are guaranteed deadlocks: -- -- * @'modify_' v '$' 'const' '$' 'with' v '$' 'const' 'undefined'@ -- -- * @'with' v '$' 'const' '$' 'modify_' v '$' 'const' 'undefined'@ -- -- * @'modify_' v '$' 'const' '$' 'modify_' v '$' 'const' 'undefined'@ -- -- All functions are /exception safe/. Throwing asynchronous exceptions will not -- compromise the internal state of an 'RWVar'. This also means that threads -- blocking on 'with' or 'modify' and friends can still be unblocked by throwing -- an asynchronous exception. -- -- This module is designed to be imported qualified. We suggest importing it -- like: -- -- @ -- import Control.Concurrent.ReadWriteVar ( RWVar ) -- import qualified Control.Concurrent.ReadWriteVar as RWV ( ... ) -- @ -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- module Control.Concurrent.ReadWriteVar ( RWVar , new , with , tryWith , modify_ , modify , tryModify_ , tryModify ) where ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Imports ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- from base: import Control.Applicative ( liftA2 ) import Control.Monad ( (>>=) ) import Data.Bool ( Bool(..) ) import Data.Eq ( Eq, (==) ) import Data.Function ( ($), (.), on ) import Data.Functor ( fmap ) import Data.Maybe ( Maybe(..), isJust ) import Data.IORef ( IORef, newIORef, readIORef ) import Data.Typeable ( Typeable ) import System.IO ( IO ) #ifdef __HADDOCK_VERSION__ import Data.Function ( const ) import Prelude ( undefined ) #endif -- from concurrent-extra (this package): import Control.Concurrent.ReadWriteLock ( RWLock ) import qualified Control.Concurrent.ReadWriteLock as RWLock import Utils ( modifyIORefM, modifyIORefM_ ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Read-Write Variables: concurrent read, sequential write ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- | Concurrently readable and sequentially writable variable. data RWVar a = RWVar RWLock (IORef a) deriving Typeable instance Eq (RWVar a) where (==) = (==) `on` rwlock where rwlock (RWVar rwl _) = rwl -- | Create a new 'RWVar'. new :: a -> IO (RWVar a) new = liftA2 RWVar RWLock.new . newIORef {-| Execute an action that operates on the contents of the 'RWVar'.
