Thread-local storage.

Note that here "thread" refers to system level threads rather than fibers or domains. In case a system level thread implementation, i.e. the threads.posix library, is not available, this will use Picos_domain.DLS.

type 'a key

Represents a key for storing values of type 'a in storage associated with threads.

val new_key : (unit -> 'a) -> 'a key

new_key compute allocates a new key for associating values in storage associated with threads. The initial value for each thread is computed by calling the given function if the key is read before it has been written.

val get : 'a key -> 'a

get key returns the value associated with the key in the storage associated with the current thread.

val set : 'a key -> 'a -> unit

set key value sets the value associated with the key in the storage associated with the current thread.
