ghc-concurrent-extra

The 'concurrent-extra' package offers among other things the following
selection of synchronisation primitives:

'Broadcast': Wake multiple threads by broadcasting a value.

'Event': Wake multiple threads by signalling an event.

'Lock': Enforce exclusive access to a resource. Also known as a binary


semaphore or mutex. The package additionally provides an alternative that works
in the 'STM' monad.

'RLock': A lock which can be acquired multiple times by the same thread.

Also known as a reentrant mutex.

'ReadWriteLock': Multiple-reader, single-writer locks. Used to protect shared

resources which may be concurrently read, but only sequentially written.

'ReadWriteVar': Concurrent read, sequential write variables.

Please consult the API documentation of the individual modules for more
detailed information.
This package was inspired by the concurrency libraries of Java and Python.
