  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
