-- Concurrent read, sequential write variables. Comparable to an 'IORef' with
-- more advanced synchronization mechanisms. The value stored inside the 'RWVar'
-- can be read and used by multiple threads at the same time. Concurrent
-- computations inside a 'with' \"block\" observe the same value.
--
-- Observing and changing the contents of an 'RWVar' are mutually exclusive. The
-- 'with' function will block if 'modify' is active and vice-versa. Furthermore
-- 'with' is fully sequential and will also block on concurrent calls of 'with'.
--
-- The following are guaranteed deadlocks:
--
-- * @'modify_' v '$' 'const' '$' 'with' v '$' 'const' 'undefined'@
--
-- * @'with' v '$' 'const' '$' 'modify_' v '$' 'const' 'undefined'@
--
-- * @'modify_' v '$' 'const' '$' 'modify_' v '$' 'const' 'undefined'@
--
-- All functions are /exception safe/. Throwing asynchronous exceptions will not
-- compromise the internal state of an 'RWVar'. This also means that threads
-- blocking on 'with' or 'modify' and friends can still be unblocked by throwing
-- an asynchronous exception.
--
-- This module is designed to be imported qualified. We suggest importing it
-- like:
--
-- @
-- import           Control.Concurrent.ReadWriteVar        ( RWVar )
-- import qualified Control.Concurrent.ReadWriteVar as RWV ( ... )
-- @

The action is guaranteed to have a consistent view of the stored value. Any

completed.

If another thread is modifying the contents of the 'RWVar' this function will
block until the other thread finishes its action.
