Yet another implementation of AtomicLong class.
Class that allows to update long value atomically. Highly inspired by Java's AtomicLong class and atomic package. The most of performance is gained by using Cython with the pure Python fallback available (you do not want to use it).
Examples:
>> counter = atomicl.AtomicLong() >> counter += 2 >> counter.value 2 >> counter.get_and_set(5) 2 >> counter.value 5
Differences from atomic
atomic is a more mature library and is battle-tested.
Despite small API differences, the huge difference between atomic
and atomicl is comparisons operations support. atomicl does
not supports comparison and, for now, I do not see reasons to have
it. I tend to agree with folks from java on
this topic.
atomic is backed by CFFI which makes it a good choice for CPython
and PyPy. atomicl with Cython extension gains better
performance on CPython and performs worse on PyPy. See
Benchmarks for more details.
