Detailed Description

The QgsReadWriteLocker class is a convenience class that simplifies locking and unlocking QReadWriteLocks.

Locking and unlocking a QReadWriteLocks in complex functions and statements or in exception handling code is error-prone and difficult to debug. QgsReadWriteLocker can be used in such situations to ensure that the state of the lock is always well-defined.

QgsReadWriteLocker should be created within a function where a QReadWriteLock needs to be locked. The lock may be locked when QgsReadWriteLocker is created or when changeMode is called. You can unlock and relock the lock with unlock() and changeMode(). If locked, the lock will be unlocked when the QgsReadWriteLocker is destroyed.

Since: QGIS 3.4

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsReadWriteLocker()

QgsReadWriteLocker::QgsReadWriteLocker	(	QReadWriteLock &	lock,
		QgsReadWriteLocker::Mode	mode
	)

Create a new QgsReadWriteLocker for lock and initialize in mode.

Definition at line 20 of file qgsreadwritelocker.cpp.

◆ ~QgsReadWriteLocker()

QgsReadWriteLocker::~QgsReadWriteLocker ( )

Definition at line 53 of file qgsreadwritelocker.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ changeMode()

void QgsReadWriteLocker::changeMode ( QgsReadWriteLocker::Mode mode )

Change the mode of the lock to mode.

The lock will be unlocked and relocked as required.

Definition at line 30 of file qgsreadwritelocker.cpp.

◆ unlock()

void QgsReadWriteLocker::unlock ( )

Unlocks the lock.

Equivalent to doing changeMode( QgsReadWriteLocker::Unlock );
