Description

"APR::ThreadRWLock" interfaces APR thread read/write locks.

See srclib/apr/locks/unix/thread_rwlock.c in your Apache source tree. At the time of this writing these methods are not supported on all platforms. Thus, check your libraries!

API

"APR::ThreadRWLock" provides the following functions and/or methods:

Unsupported API

"APR::ThreadRWLock" also provides auto-generated Perl interface for a few other methods which aren't tested at the moment and therefore their API is a subject to change. These methods will be finalized later as a need arises. If you want to rely on any of the following methods please contact the the mod_perl development mailing list so we can help each other take the steps necessary to shift the method to an officially supported API.

"DESTROY"

META: Autogenerated - needs to be reviewed/completed

Destroy the lock and free the associated memory.

  $lock->DESTROY();
the lock to destroy.

"rdlock"

META: Autogenerated - needs to be reviewed/completed

  $ret = $lock->rdlock();
the lock on which to acquire the lock.

Performs the same operation as "rdlock" with the exception that the function shall fail if the thread would be blocked.

  $ret = $lock->tryrdlock();
the lock on which to acquire the lock.

"wrlock"

META: Autogenerated - needs to be reviewed/completed

Acquire the write lock for the given lock. The calling thread acquires the write lock if if no other thread (reader or writer) holds it. Otherwize it is put to sleep until this condition is met.

  $ret = $lock->wrlock();
the lock on which to acquire the lock.

Create a new lock

  my $lock = APR::ThreadRWLock->new($p);

"pool_get"
