abstract class Ref[F[_], A] extends AnyRef

An asynchronous, concurrent mutable reference.

Provides safe concurrent access and modification of its content, but no functionality for synchronisation, which is instead handled by Deferred. For this reason, a Ref is always initialised to a value.

The default implementation is nonblocking and lightweight, consisting essentially of a purely functional wrapper over an AtomicReference.

Abstract Value Members

  1. abstract def access: F[(A, (A) ⇒ F[Boolean])]

    Obtains a snapshot of the current value, and a setter for updating it.

    Obtains a snapshot of the current value, and a setter for updating it. The setter may noop (in which case false is returned) if another concurrent call to access uses its setter first.

    Once it has noop'd or been used once, a setter never succeeds again.

    Satisfies: r.access.map(_._1) == r.get r.access.flatMap { case (v, setter) => setter(f(v)) } == r.tryUpdate(f).map(_.isDefined)

  2. abstract def get: F[A]

    Obtains the current value.

    Obtains the current value.

    Since Ref is always guaranteed to have a value, the returned action completes immediately after being bound.

  3. abstract def getAndSet(a: A): F[A]

    Replaces the current value with a, returning the previous value.

  4. abstract def modify[B](f: (A) ⇒ (A, B)): F[B]

    Like tryModify but does not complete until the update has been successfully made.

  5. abstract def modifyState[B](state: State[A, B]): F[B]

    Like tryModifyState but retries the modification until successful.

  6. abstract def set(a: A): F[Unit]

    Sets the current value to a.

    Sets the current value to a.

    The returned action completes after the reference has been successfully set.

    Satisfies: r.set(fa) *> r.get == fa

  7. abstract def tryModify[B](f: (A) ⇒ (A, B)): F[Option[B]]

    Like tryUpdate but allows the update function to return an output value of type B.

    Like tryUpdate but allows the update function to return an output value of type B. The returned action completes with None if the value is not updated successfully and Some(b) otherwise.

  8. abstract def tryModifyState[B](state: State[A, B]): F[Option[B]]

    Update the value of this ref with a state computation.

    Update the value of this ref with a state computation.

    The current value of this ref is used as the initial state and the computed output state is stored in this ref after computation completes. If a concurrent modification occurs, None is returned.

  9. abstract def tryUpdate(f: (A) ⇒ A): F[Boolean]

    Attempts to modify the current value once, returning false if another concurrent modification completes between the time the variable is read and the time it is set.

  10. abstract def update(f: (A) ⇒ A): F[Unit]

    Modifies the current value using the supplied update function.

    Modifies the current value using the supplied update function. If another modification occurs between the time the current value is read and subsequently updated, the modification is retried using the new value. Hence, f may be invoked multiple times.

    Satisfies: r.update(_ => a) == r.set(a)
