Fork of triomphe
, which is a fork of Arc
. This has the following advantages over std::sync::Arc
:
* elysees::Arc
doesn't support weak references: we save space by excluding the weak reference count, and we don't do extra read-modify-update operations to handle the possibility of weak references.
* elysees::ArcBox
allows one to construct a temporarily-mutable Arc
which can be converted to a regular elysees::Arc
later
* elysees::OffsetArc
can be used transparently from C++ code and is compatible with (and can be converted to/from) elysees::Arc
* elysees::ArcBorrow
is functionally similar to &elysees::Arc<T>
, however in memory it's simply a (non-owned) pointer to the inner Arc
. This helps avoid pointer-chasing.
* elysees::OffsetArcBorrow
is functionally similar to &elysees::Arc<T>
, however in memory it's simply &T
. This makes it more flexible for FFI; the source of the borrow need not be an Arc
pinned on the stack (and can instead be a pointer from C++, or an OffsetArc
). Additionally, this helps avoid pointer-chasing.
* elysees::ArcRef
is a union of an Arc
and an ArcBorrow
