Module lock

Expand description

Abstraction for providing interior mutability over for a type.

By default, the unsync types are used. The sync flag switches to the Send + Sync variants

Type	unsync (default)	sync
`Lock<T>`	`RefCell<T>`	`parking_lot::RwLock<T>`
`Ref<T>`	`Ref<T>`	`parking_lot::RwLockReadGuard<T>`
`RefMut<T>`	`RefMut<T>`	`parking_lot::RwLockWriteGuard<T>`
`RefMapped<T>`	`Ref<T>`	`parking_lot::MappedRwLockReadGuard<T>`
`RefMutMapped<T>`	`RefMut<T>`	`parking_lot::MappedRwLockWriteGuard<T>`
`Shared<T>`	`Rc<T>`	`Arc<T>`

NOTE: RefMapped and RefMutMapped are not a type alias but rather new-type wrappers to match the behavior of parking_lot.

So Ref::map() returns a RefMapped rather than a Ref
