Detailed Description

template<class RCU, typename NodeType, typename ValueType, typename Disposer, typename Cast>
class cds::urcu::exempt_ptr< RCU, NodeType, ValueType, Disposer, Cast >

Exempt pointer for RCU.

This special pointer class is intended for returning extracted node from RCU-based container. The destructor (and release() member function) invokes RCU::retire_ptr< Disposer >() function to dispose the node. For non-intrusive containers from cds::container namespace Disposer is usually an invocation of node deallocator. For intrusive containers the disposer can be empty or it can trigger an event "node can be reused safely". In any case, the exempt pointer concept keeps RCU semantics. The destructor or release() should be called outside the RCU lock of current thread.

You don't need use this helper class directly. Any RCU-based container typedefs a simplified version of this template.

Template arguments:

  • RCU - one of RCU type
  • NodeType - container's node type
  • ValueType - value type stored in container's node. For intrusive containers it is the same as NodeType
  • Disposer - a disposer functor
  • Cast - a functor for casting from NodeType to ValueType. For intrusive containers the casting is usually disabled, i.e. Cast is void.
