.. currentmodule:: mitogen.core
.. class:: Latch ()
.. autoclass:: Latch ()
A latch is a :py:class:`Queue.Queue`-like object that supports mutation and
waiting from multiple threads, however unlike :py:class:`Queue.Queue`,
waiting threads always remain interruptible, so CTRL+C always succeeds, and
waits where a timeout is set experience no wake up latency. These
properties are not possible in combination using the built-in threading
primitives available in Python 2.x.
Latches implement queues using the UNIX self-pipe trick, and a per-thread
:py:func:`socket.socketpair` that is lazily created the first time any
latch attempts to sleep on a thread, and dynamically associated with the
waiting Latch only for duration of the wait.
See :ref:`waking-sleeping-threads` for further discussion.
.. method:: empty ()
Return :py:data:`True` if calling :py:meth:`get` would block.
As with :py:class:`Queue.Queue`, :py:data:`True` may be returned even
though a subsequent call to :py:meth:`get` will succeed, since a
message may be posted at any moment between :py:meth:`empty` and
:py:meth:`get`.
As with :py:class:`Queue.Queue`, :py:data:`False` may be returned even
though a subsequent call to :py:meth:`get` will block, since another
waiting thread may be woken at any moment between :py:meth:`empty` and
:py:meth:`get`.
.. method:: get (timeout=None, block=True)
Return the next object enqueued on this latch, or sleep waiting for
one.
:param float timeout:
If not :py:data:`None`, specifies a timeout in seconds.
:param bool block:
If :py:data:`False`, immediately raise
:py:class:`mitogen.core.TimeoutError` if the latch is empty.
:raises mitogen.core.LatchError:
:py:meth:`close` has been called, and the object is no longer valid.
:raises mitogen.core.TimeoutError:
Timeout was reached.
:returns:
The de-queued object.
.. method:: put (obj)
Enqueue an object on this latch, waking the first thread that is asleep
waiting for a result, if one exists.
:raises mitogen.core.LatchError:
:py:meth:`close` has been called, and the object is no longer valid.
.. method:: close ()
Mark the latch as closed, and cause every sleeping thread to be woken,
with :py:class:`mitogen.core.LatchError` raised in each thread.
