UIManager initiates execution of many blocks on the Main queue; * 2. In some cases, we want to initiate (and wait for) some UIManager's work *synchronously* from * the Main queue. * * So, how can we meet these criteria? * "Pseudo UIManager queue" comes to rescue! * * "Pseudo UIManager queue" means the safe execution of typical UIManager's work * on the Main queue while the UIManager queue is explicitly blocked for preventing * simultaneous/concurrent memory access. * * So, how can we technically do this? * 1. `RCTAssertUIManagerQueue` is okay with execution on both actual UIManager and * Pseudo UIManager queues. * 2. Both `RCTExecuteOnUIManagerQueue` and `RCTUnsafeExecuteOnUIManagerQueueSync` * execute given block *synchronously* if they were called on actual UIManager * or Pseudo UIManager queues. * 3. `RCTExecuteOnMainQueue` executes given block *synchronously* if we already on * the Main queue. * 4. `RCTUnsafeExecuteOnUIManagerQueueSync` is smart enough to do the trick: * It detects calling on the Main queue and in this case, instead of doing * trivial *synchronous* dispatch, it does: * - Block the Main queue; * - Dispatch the special block on UIManager queue to block the queue and * concurrent memory access; * - Execute the given block on the Main queue; * - Unblock the UIManager queue. * * Imagine the analogy: We have two queues: the Main one and UIManager one. * And these queues are two lanes of railway that go in parallel. Then, * at some point, we merge UIManager lane with the Main lane, and all cars use * the unified the Main lane. * And then we split lanes again. * * This solution assumes that the code running on UIManager queue will never * *explicitly* block the Main queue via calling `RCTUnsafeExecuteOnMainQueueSync`. * Otherwise, it can cause a deadlock. */ /** * Returns UIManager queue. */ RCT_EXTERN dispatch_queue_t RCTGetUIManagerQueue(void); /** * Default name for the UIManager queue. */ RCT_EXTERN char *const RCTUIManagerQueueName; /** * Check if we are currently on UIManager queue. * Please do not use this unless you really know what you're doing. */ RCT_EXTERN BOOL RCTIsUIManagerQueue(void); /** * Check if we are currently on Pseudo UIManager queue. * Please do not use this unless you really know what you're doing. */ RCT_EXTERN BOOL RCTIsPseudoUIManagerQueue(void); /** * *Asynchronously* executes the specified block on the UIManager queue. * Unlike `dispatch_async()` this will execute the block immediately * if we're already on the UIManager queue. */ RCT_EXTERN void RCTExecuteOnUIManagerQueue(dispatch_block_t block); /** * *Synchorously* executes the specified block on the UIManager queue. * Unlike `dispatch_sync()` this will execute the block immediately * if we're already on the UIManager queue. * Please do not use this unless you really know what you're doing. */ RCT_EXTERN void RCTUnsafeExecuteOnUIManagerQueueSync(dispatch_block_t block); /** * Convenience macro for asserting that we're running on UIManager queue. */ #define RCTAssertUIManagerQueue() RCTAssert(RCTIsUIManagerQueue() || RCTIsPseudoUIManagerQueue(), \ @"This function must be called on the UIManager queue") /** * Returns new unique root view tag. */ RCT_EXTERN NSNumber *RCTAllocateRootViewTag(void);
