std::unique_lock::swap(3)

💅 std::unique_lock::swap(3)

okay bestie, this is the C++ Standard Libary page for std::unique_lock::swap, and it’s lowkey iconic because it’s all about swapping lock state with zero drama. 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

std::unique_lock::swap - std::unique_lock::swap

That’s literally the name bestie — no extra lore. 🫶

✨ Synopsis ✨

void swap( unique_lock& other ) noexcept;  (since C++11)

It exchanges the internal states of the lock objects. Like, the locks trade places internally — vibe check passed. 🔄✨

🎀 Parameters 🎀

• other — the lock to swap the state with.

💅 Return value 💅

(none) — yep, it returns nothing, babe. Not a single value. 😌

🦋 Example 🦋

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <mutex>

int main()
{
    std::mutex mtx1;
    std::unique_lock<std::mutex> guard1(mtx1);
    std::unique_lock<std::mutex> guard2;
    guard2.swap(guard1);

    if (!guard1 && guard2)
        std::cout << "swapped success\n";

    return 0;
}

🌈 Output 🌈

swapped success
