Struct AtomicRefBox 

pub struct AtomicRefBox<T> { /* private fields */ }

A thread-safe pointer type that uniquely owns a heap allocation of type T, but allows immutable (weak) references to be created and shared.

CRITICAL: The current implementation is flawed. See Deref implementation for reason.

Implementations

impl<T> AtomicRefBox<T>

pub fn new(value: T) -> AtomicRefBox<T>

pub fn borrow(this: &Self) -> AtomicRef<'_, T>

Immutably borrows the inner value.

pub fn borrow_mut(this: &Self) -> AtomicMutRef<'_, T>

Mutably borrows the inner value.

pub fn to_weak(this: &Self) -> AtomicWeakRef<T>

pub fn into_inner(this: Self) -> T

Extracts the inner value from the box.

This function may block until all weak references have finished actively borrowing the value.

Trait Implementations

impl<T> AsRef<T> for AtomicRefBox<T>

fn as_ref(&self) -> &T

Converts this type into a shared reference of the (usually inferred) input type.

impl<T> Deref for AtomicRefBox<T>

type Target = T

The resulting type after dereferencing.

fn deref(&self) -> &Self::Target

Dereferences the value.
