Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class sf::ThreadLocalPtr< T >

Pointer to a thread-local variable.

sf::ThreadLocalPtr is a type-safe wrapper for storing pointers to thread-local variables.

A thread-local variable holds a different value for each different thread, unlike normal variable that are shared.

Its usage is completely transparent, so that it is similar to manipulating the raw pointer directly (like any smart pointer).

Usage example:

MyClass object1;
MyClass object2;
void thread1()
{
objectPtr = &object1; // doesn't impact thread2
...
}
void thread2()
{
objectPtr = &object2; // doesn't impact thread1
...
}
int main()
{
// Create and launch the two threads
sf::Thread t1(&thread1);
sf::Thread t2(&thread2);
t1.launch();
t2.launch();
return 0;
}

ThreadLocalPtr is designed for internal use; however you can use it if you feel like it fits well your implementation.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename T>
sf::ThreadLocalPtr< T >::ThreadLocalPtr ( T *  value = NULL)

Default constructor.

Parameters
valueOptional value to initalize the variable

Member Function Documentation

template<typename T>
sf::ThreadLocalPtr< T >::operator T * ( ) const

Cast operator to implicitely convert the pointer to its raw pointer type (T*)

Returns
Pointer to the actual object
template<typename T>
T& sf::ThreadLocalPtr< T >::operator* ( ) const

Overload of unary operator *.

Like raw pointers, applying the * operator returns a reference to the pointed object.

Returns
Reference to the pointed object
template<typename T>
T* sf::ThreadLocalPtr< T >::operator-> ( ) const

Overload of operator ->

Like raw pointers, applying the -> operator returns the pointed object.

Returns
Pointed object
template<typename T>
ThreadLocalPtr<T>& sf::ThreadLocalPtr< T >::operator= ( T *  value)

Assignment operator for a raw pointer parameter.

Parameters
valuePointer to assign
Returns
Reference to self
template<typename T>
ThreadLocalPtr<T>& sf::ThreadLocalPtr< T >::operator= ( const ThreadLocalPtr< T > &  right)

Assignment operator for a ThreadLocalPtr parameter.

Parameters
rightThreadLocalPtr to assign
Returns
Reference to self
