Core.Builtins

Builtin Function APIs

The following Builtin function APIs are considered unstable, but provide the basic definitions for what defines the abilities and behaviors of a Julia program. They are typically accessed through a higher level generic API.

# Core.memoryrefnewFunction.
julia
Core.memoryrefnew(::GenericMemory)
Core.memoryrefnew(::GenericMemoryRef, index::Int, [boundscheck::Bool])

Return a GenericMemoryRef for a GenericMemory. See memoryref.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

source


# Core.memoryrefoffsetFunction.
julia
Core..memoryrefoffset(::GenericMemoryRef)

Return the offset index that was used to construct the MemoryRef. See memoryref.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

source


# Core.memoryrefgetFunction.
julia
Core.memoryrefget(::GenericMemoryRef, ordering::Symbol, boundscheck::Bool)

Return the value stored at the MemoryRef, throwing a BoundsError if the Memory is empty. See ref[]. The memory ordering specified must be compatible with the isatomic parameter.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

source


# Core.memoryrefset!Function.
julia
Core.memoryrefset!(::GenericMemoryRef, value, ordering::Symbol, boundscheck::Bool)

Store the value to the MemoryRef, throwing a BoundsError if the Memory is empty. See ref[] = value. The memory ordering specified must be compatible with the isatomic parameter.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

source


# Core.memoryref_isassignedFunction.
julia
Core.memoryref_isassigned(::GenericMemoryRef, ordering::Symbol, boundscheck::Bool)

Return whether there is a value stored at the MemoryRef, returning false if the Memory is empty. See isassigned(::Base.RefValue), Core.memoryrefget. The memory ordering specified must be compatible with the isatomic parameter.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

source


# Core.memoryrefswap!Function.
julia
Core.memoryrefswap!(::GenericMemoryRef, value, ordering::Symbol, boundscheck::Bool)

Atomically perform the operations to simultaneously get and set a MemoryRef value.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

See also swapproperty! and Core.memoryrefset!.

source


# Core.memoryrefmodify!Function.
julia
Core.memoryrefmodify!(::GenericMemoryRef, op, value, ordering::Symbol, boundscheck::Bool) -> Pair

Atomically perform the operations to get and set a MemoryRef value after applying the function op.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

See also modifyproperty! and Core.memoryrefset!.

source


# Core.memoryrefreplace!Function.

                       success_order::Symbol, fail_order::Symbol=success_order, boundscheck::Bool) -> (; old, success::Bool)

Atomically perform the operations to get and conditionally set a MemoryRef value.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

See also replaceproperty! and Core.memoryrefset!.

# Core.memoryrefsetonce!Function.
julia
Core.memoryrefsetonce!(::GenericMemoryRef, value,
                       success_order::Symbol, fail_order::Symbol=success_order, boundscheck::Bool) -> success::Bool

Atomically perform the operations to set a MemoryRef to a given value, only if it was previously not set.

Julia 1.11

This function requires Julia 1.11 or later.

See also setpropertyonce! and Core.memoryrefset!.
