Initialization of the value happens when the `operator*()` is called for the very first time, by invoking the `initializer` lambda-function that was passed to the constructor. The return value of the `initializer` lambda-function is then stored internally, so that any subsequent call to the `operator*()` *immediately* returns the previously created value. * * **Note on thread-saftey:** This class is thread-safe in the sense that all calls to `operator*()` on the same `Lazy` instance, regardless from which thread, are guaranteed to return the exactly same value/object. The *first* thread trying to access the value will invoke the `initializer` lambda-function; concurrent threads may need to busy-wait until the initialization is completed. The `initializer` lambda-function is invoked at most once. */ template class Lazy { public: Lazy(std::function &&initializer) : m_initializer(initializer) { } T& operator*(void) { return (*getValue()); } T* operator->(void) { return getValue(); } bool initialized() { return (m_state > 1); } ~Lazy(void) { if(T *const value = m_value) { delete value; } } protected: __forceinline T* getValue() { T *value; while (!(value = m_value)) { if (m_state.testAndSetOrdered(0, 1)) { if (value = m_initializer()) { m_value.fetchAndStoreOrdered(value); m_state.fetchAndStoreOrdered(2); break; /*success*/ } m_state.fetchAndStoreOrdered(0); MUTILS_THROW("Initializer returned NULL pointer!"); } QThread::yieldCurrentThread(); } return value; } private: QAtomicPointer m_value; QAtomicInt m_state; const std::function m_initializer; }; }
