class Foundation_API TLSAbstractSlot
This is the base class for all objects
that the ThreadLocalStorage class manages.
{
public:
TLSAbstractSlot();
virtual ~TLSAbstractSlot();
};
template <class C>
class TLSSlot: public TLSAbstractSlot
The Slot template wraps another class
so that it can be stored in a ThreadLocalStorage
object. This class is used internally, and you
must not create instances of it yourself.
{
public:
TLSSlot():
_value()
{
}
~TLSSlot()
{
}
C& value()
{
return _value;
}
private:
TLSSlot(const TLSSlot&);
TLSSlot& operator = (const TLSSlot&);
C _value;
};
class Foundation_API ThreadLocalStorage
This class manages the local storage for each thread.
Never use this class directly, always use the
ThreadLocal template for managing thread local storage.
{
public:
ThreadLocalStorage();
Creates the TLS.
~ThreadLocalStorage();
Deletes the TLS.
TLSAbstractSlot*& get(const void* key);
Returns the slot for the given key.
static ThreadLocalStorage& current();
Returns the TLS object for the current thread
(which may also be the main thread).
static void clear();
Clears the current thread's TLS object.
Does nothing in the main thread.
private:
typedef std::map
<const void*, TLSAbstractSlot*> TLSMap;
TLSMap _map;
friend class Thread;
};
template <class C>
class ThreadLocal
This template is used to declare type safe thread
local variables. It can basically be used like
a smart pointer class with the special feature
that it references a different object
in every thread. The underlying object will
be created when it is referenced for the first
time.
See the NestedDiagnosticContext class for an
example how to use this template.
Every thread only has access to its own
thread local data. There is no way for a thread
to access another thread's local data.
{
typedef TLSSlot<C> Slot;
public:
ThreadLocal()
{
}
~ThreadLocal()
{
}
C* operator -> ()
{
return &get();
}
C& operator * ()
"Dereferences" the smart pointer and returns a reference
to the underlying data object. The reference can be used
to modify the object.
{
return get();
}
C& get()
Returns a reference to the underlying data object.
The reference can be used to modify the object.
{
TLSAbstractSlot*& p = ThreadLocalStorage::current().get(this);
if (!p) p = new Slot;
return static_cast<Slot*>(p)->value();
}
private:
ThreadLocal(const ThreadLocal&);
ThreadLocal& operator = (const ThreadLocal&);
};
} // namespace Poco
endif // Foundation_ThreadLocal_INCLUDED
