    A small toolkit of classes that support compare-and-swap semantics for safe mutation of variables.

    A small toolkit of classes that support compare-and-swap semantics for safe mutation of variables.

    On top of the JVM, this means dealing with lock-free thread-safe programming. Also works on top of Javascript, with Scala.js, for API compatibility purposes and because it's a useful way to box a value.

    The backbone of Atomic references is this method:

    def compareAndSet(expect: T, update: T): Boolean

    This method atomically sets a variable to the update value if it currently holds the expect value, reporting true on success or false on failure. The classes in this package also contain methods to get and unconditionally set values.

    Building a reference is easy with the provided constructor, which will automatically return the most specific type needed (in the following sample, that's an AtomicDouble, inheriting from AtomicNumber[A]):

    val atomicNumber = Atomic(12.2)
    
    atomicNumber.incrementAndGet()
    // => 13.2

    These also provide useful helpers for atomically mutating of values (i.e. transform, transformAndGet, getAndTransform, etc...) or of numbers of any kind (incrementAndGet, getAndAdd, etc...).

    Cancelables represent asynchronous units of work or other things scheduled for execution and whose execution can be canceled.

    Cancelables represent asynchronous units of work or other things scheduled for execution and whose execution can be canceled.

    One use-case is the scheduling done by monix.execution.Scheduler, in which the scheduling methods return a Cancelable, allowing the canceling of the scheduling.

    Example:

    val s = ConcurrentScheduler()
    val task = s.scheduleRepeated(10.seconds, 50.seconds, {
      doSomething()
    })
    
    // later, cancels the scheduling ...
    task.cancel()

abstract class Callback[-E, -A] extends (Either[E, A]) => Unit

Represents a callback that should be called asynchronously with the result of a computation.

This is an Either[E, A] => Unit with an OOP interface that avoids extra boxing, along with overloads of apply.

The onSuccess method should be called only once, with the successful result, whereas onError should be called if the result is an error.

Obviously Callback describes unsafe side-effects, a fact that is highlighted by the usage of Unit as the return type. Obviously callbacks are unsafe to use in pure code, but are necessary for describing asynchronous processes.

THREAD-SAFETY: callback implementations are NOT thread-safe by contract, this depends on the implementation. Callbacks can be made easily thread-safe via wrapping with:

NOTE that callbacks injected in the Task async builders (e.g. Task.async) are thread-safe.
