.abort_transactionObject

Abort a currently running transaction - see ‘Concurrent::atomically`.

def abort_transaction
  raise Transaction::AbortError.new
end

.atomicallyObject

Run a block that reads and writes ‘TVar`s as a single atomic transaction. With respect to the value of `TVar` objects, the transaction is atomic, in that it either happens or it does not, consistent, in that the `TVar` objects involved will never enter an illegal state, and isolated, in that transactions never interfere with each other. You may recognise these properties from database transactions.

There are some very important and unusual semantics that you must be aware of:

  • Most importantly, the block that you pass to atomically may be executed

    more than once. In most cases your code should be free of
    side-effects, except for via TVar.
    
  • If an exception escapes an atomically block it will abort the transaction.

  • It is undefined behaviour to use callcc or Fiber with atomically.

  • If you create a new thread within an atomically, it will not be part of

    the transaction. Creating a thread counts as a side-effect.
    

Transactions within transactions are flattened to a single transaction.

Examples:

a = new TVar(100_000)
b = new TVar(100)

Concurrent::atomically do
  a.value -= 10
  b.value += 10
end

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

.dataflow(*inputs) {|inputs| ... } ⇒ Object

Dataflow allows you to create a task that will be scheduled when all of its data dependencies are available.

Parameters:

  • inputs (Future)

    zero or more ‘Future` operations that this dataflow depends upon

Yields:

  • The operation to perform once all the dependencies are met

Yield Parameters:

  • inputs (Future)

    each of the ‘Future` inputs to the dataflow

Yield Returns:

  • (Object)

    the result of the block operation

Returns:

  • (Object)

    the result of all the operations

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    if no block is given

  • (ArgumentError)

    if any of the inputs are not ‘IVar`s

.disable_at_exit_handlers!Object

Deprecated.

Has no effect since it is no longer needed, see github.com/ruby-concurrency/concurrent-ruby/pull/841.

Note:

this option should be needed only because of ‘at_exit` ordering issues which may arise when running some of the testing frameworks. E.g. Minitest’s test-suite runs itself in ‘at_exit` callback which executes after the pools are already terminated. Then auto termination needs to be disabled and called manually after test-suite ends.

Note:

This method should never be called from within a gem. It should only be used from within the main application and even then it should be used only when necessary.

Disables AtExit handlers including pool auto-termination handlers. When disabled it will be the application programmer’s responsibility to ensure that the handlers are shutdown properly prior to application exit by calling ‘AtExit.run` method.

Instance Method Details

#exchange(value, timeout = nil) ⇒ Object

Waits for another thread to arrive at this exchange point (unless the current thread is interrupted), and then transfers the given object to it, receiving its object in return. The timeout value indicates the approximate number of seconds the method should block while waiting for the exchange. When the timeout value is ‘nil` the method will block indefinitely.

In some edge cases when a ‘timeout` is given a return value of `nil` may be ambiguous. Specifically, if `nil` is a valid value in the exchange it will be impossible to tell whether `nil` is the actual return value or if it signifies timeout. When `nil` is a valid value in the exchange consider using #exchange! or #try_exchange instead.

Parameters:

  • value (Object)

    the value to exchange with another thread

  • timeout (Numeric, nil) (defaults to: nil)

    in seconds, ‘nil` blocks indefinitely

Returns:

  • (Object)

    the value exchanged by the other thread or ‘nil` on timeout

#exchange!(value, timeout = nil) ⇒ Object

Waits for another thread to arrive at this exchange point (unless the current thread is interrupted), and then transfers the given object to it, receiving its object in return. The timeout value indicates the approximate number of seconds the method should block while waiting for the exchange. When the timeout value is ‘nil` the method will block indefinitely.

On timeout a TimeoutError exception will be raised.

Parameters:

  • value (Object)

    the value to exchange with another thread

  • timeout (Numeric, nil) (defaults to: nil)

    in seconds, ‘nil` blocks indefinitely

Returns:

  • (Object)

    the value exchanged by the other thread

Raises:



# File 'lib/concurrent-ruby/concurrent/exchanger.rb', line 344

#initialize(opts = {}) ⇒ Object

Create a new thread pool.

Options Hash (opts):

  • :fallback_policy (Symbol) — default: :discard

    the policy for handling new tasks that are received when the queue size has reached ‘max_queue` or the executor has shut down

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    if ‘:fallback_policy` is not one of the values specified in `FALLBACK_POLICIES`

#try_exchange(value, timeout = nil) ⇒ Concurrent::Maybe

Waits for another thread to arrive at this exchange point (unless the current thread is interrupted), and then transfers the given object to it, receiving its object in return. The timeout value indicates the approximate number of seconds the method should block while waiting for the exchange. When the timeout value is ‘nil` the method will block indefinitely.

The return value will be a Maybe set to ‘Just` on success or `Nothing` on timeout.

Examples:


exchanger = Concurrent::Exchanger.new

result = exchanger.exchange(:foo, 0.5)

if result.just?
  puts result.value #=> :bar
else
  puts 'timeout'
end

Parameters:

  • value (Object)

    the value to exchange with another thread

  • timeout (Numeric, nil) (defaults to: nil)

    in seconds, ‘nil` blocks indefinitely

Returns:

  • (Concurrent::Maybe)

    on success a ‘Just` maybe will be returned with the item exchanged by the other thread as `#value`; on timeout a `Nothing` maybe will be returned with TimeoutError as `#reason`
