ThreadSpecificVariable

public final class ThreadSpecificVariable<Value> where Value : AnyObject

A ThreadSpecificVariable is a variable that can be read and set like a normal variable except that it holds different variables per thread.

ThreadSpecificVariable is thread-safe so it can be used with multiple threads at the same time but the value returned by currentValue is defined per thread.

  • Initialize a new ThreadSpecificVariable without a current value (currentValue == nil).

    Declaration

    Swift
