Struct RwLock 

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

A Read-Write Lock.

This lock is similar to the std::sync::RwLock. But it is distributed over multiple instances of the same service.

Threads

If you try to get a writer lock in a thread, which already has a reader lock, you will end up in a deadlock. To use the RwLock in threads, you need a scoped thread.

Examples

Linear usage

use dtypes::redis::sync::RwLock;
use dtypes::redis::types::Di32;
use std::thread;

let client = redis::Client::open("redis://localhost:6379").unwrap();
let client2 = client.clone();
let mut i32 = Di32::with_value(1, "test_rwlock_example1", client.clone());
let mut lock = RwLock::new(i32);

// many reader locks can be held at once
{
    let read1 = lock.read().unwrap();
    let read2 = lock.read().unwrap();
    assert_eq!(*read1, 1);
} // read locks are dropped at this point

// only one writer lock can be held, however
{
    let mut write1 = lock.write().unwrap();
    write1.store(2).unwrap();
    assert_eq!(*write1, 2);
    // the next line is not allowed, because it deadlocks.
    //let mut _ = lock.write().unwrap();
} // write lock is dropped here

// look, you can read it again
{
   let read1 = lock.read().unwrap();
   assert_eq!(*read1, 2);
}

Threaded usage

use dtypes::redis::sync::RwLock;
use dtypes::redis::types::Di32;
use std::thread;

let client = redis::Client::open("redis://localhost:6379").unwrap();
let i32 = Di32::with_value(1, "test_rwlock_example2", client.clone());
let mut lock = RwLock::new(i32);
// the reader lock is dropped immediately
assert_eq!(*lock.read().unwrap(), 1);
// Scoped threads are needed, otherwise the lifetime is unclear.
thread::scope(|s| {
       s.spawn(|| {
           let mut write = lock.write().unwrap();
           write.store(2);
           assert_eq!(*write, 2);
       }).join().unwrap();
});
assert_eq!(*lock.read().unwrap(), 2);

Implementations

impl<T> RwLock<T>

where T: Serialize + DeserializeOwned,

pub fn new(data: Generic<T>) -> Self

pub fn read(&self) -> Result<RwLockReadGuard<'_, T>, LockError>

Creates a new RwLock Reader.

This function blocks until the lock is acquired. If there is a writer lock, this function blocks until the writer lock is dropped. Also if there is a writer locks waiting to be acquired, this function blocks until the writer lock is acquired and dropped.

pub fn write(&mut self) -> Result<RwLockWriteGuard<'_, T>, LockError>

Creates a new RwLock Writer.

This function blocks until the lock is acquired. If there is a reader lock, this function blocks until the reader lock is dropped. The acquiring writer lock has priority over any waiting reader lock.

Methods from Deref<Target = Generic<T>>

pub fn store(&mut self, value: T)

The store method sets the value of the type.

        let client2 = client.clone();

        let t1 = s.spawn(move || {
            let mut string = String::with_value("Hello".to_string(), "test", client);
            println!("Thread1: {}", string.cached().unwrap());
            assert_eq!(string, "Hello");
            sleep(std::time::Duration::from_secs(1));
            string.store("World".to_string());
            println!("Thread1: {}", string.cached().unwrap());
            assert_eq!(string, "World");
        });

        let t2 = s.spawn(move || {
            sleep(std::time::Duration::from_micros(100));
            let mut string = String::with_load("test", client2);
            println!("Thread2: {}", string.cached().unwrap());
            assert_eq!(string, "Hello");
            sleep(std::time::Duration::from_secs(2));
            string.acquire();
            println!("Thread2: {}", string.cached().unwrap());
            assert_eq!(string, "World");
        });
        t1.join().expect("Failed to join thread1");
        t2.join().expect("Failed to join thread2");
    });
}

pub fn acquire(&mut self) -> &T

The acquire method returns a reference to the value stored in the type. Loads it from the redis directly.

Example

use dtypes::redis::types::Di32 as i32;

let client = redis::Client::open("redis://localhost:6379").unwrap();
let mut i32 = i32::with_value(1, "test_add", client.clone());
i32 = i32 + i32::with_value(2, "test_add2", client);
assert_eq!(i32.acquire(), &3);
