TryEnterReadLock()

Attempts to enter reader lock without blocking the caller thread.

Declaration

public bool TryEnterReadLock()

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if reader lock is acquired; otherwise, false.

TryEnterReadLock(TimeSpan, CancellationToken)

Tries to enter the lock in read mode.

Declaration

public bool TryEnterReadLock(TimeSpan timeout, CancellationToken token = default)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TimeSpan	timeout	The interval to wait.
CancellationToken	token	The token that can be used to cancel the operation.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if the calling thread entered read mode, otherwise, false.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
OperationCanceledException	The operation has been canceled.

TryEnterWriteLock()

Attempts to enter writer lock without blocking the caller thread.

Declaration

public bool TryEnterWriteLock()

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if writer lock is acquired; otherwise, false.

TryEnterWriteLock(TimeSpan, CancellationToken)

Tries to enter the lock in write mode.

Declaration

public bool TryEnterWriteLock(TimeSpan timeout, CancellationToken token = default)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TimeSpan	timeout	The interval to wait.
CancellationToken	token	The token that can be used to cancel the operation.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if the calling thread entered read mode, otherwise, false.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
OperationCanceledException	The operation has been canceled.

TryOptimisticRead()

Returns a stamp that can be validated later.

Declaration

public readonly ReaderWriterSpinLock.LockStamp TryOptimisticRead()

Returns

Type	Description
ReaderWriterSpinLock.LockStamp	Optimistic read stamp. May be invalid.

TryUpgradeToWriteLock()

Attempts to upgrade a reader lock to the writer lock.

Declaration

public bool TryUpgradeToWriteLock()

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if the caller upgraded successfully; otherwise, false.

TryUpgradeToWriteLock(TimeSpan, CancellationToken)

Attempts to upgrade a reader lock to the writer lock.

Declaration

public bool TryUpgradeToWriteLock(TimeSpan timeout, CancellationToken token = default)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
TimeSpan	timeout	The time to wait for the lock.
CancellationToken	token	The token that can be used to cancel the operation.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if the caller upgraded successfully; otherwise, false.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
OperationCanceledException	The operation has been canceled.

UpgradeToWriteLock()

Upgrades a reader lock to the writer lock.

Declaration

public void UpgradeToWriteLock()

Remarks

The caller must have acquired read lock. Otherwise, the behavior is unspecified.

Validate(in LockStamp)

Returns true if the lock has not been exclusively acquired since issuance of the given stamp.

Declaration

public readonly bool Validate(in ReaderWriterSpinLock.LockStamp stamp)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ReaderWriterSpinLock.LockStamp	stamp	A stamp to check.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	true if the lock has not been exclusively acquired since issuance of the given stamp; else false.
