such as <code>filter</code>, <code>map</code> and <code>reduce</code> - asynchronously, being able to <code>await</code> for new data as it becomes available.</p>https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/sharing-data-across-tasks-tasklocal-new-swift-concurrency-model/Wed, 18 Aug 2021 07:00:00 -0400https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/sharing-data-across-tasks-tasklocal-new-swift-concurrency-model/<p><em>This article is part of my <a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-concurrency-in-swift-introduction/">Modern Concurrency in Swift Article Series</a>.</em></p> <h6 id="table-of-contents">Table of Contents</h6> <ol> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-concurrency-in-swift-introduction/">Modern Concurrency in Swift: Introduction</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/understanding-async-await-in-swift/">Understanding async/await in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/converting-closure-based-code-into-async-await-in-swift/">Converting closure-based code into async/await in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/structured-concurrency-in-swift-using-async-let/">Structured Concurrency in Swift: Using async let</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/structured-concurrency-with-group-tasks-in-swift/">Structured Concurrency With Task Groups in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/introduction-to-unstructured-concurrency-in-swift/">Introduction to Unstructured Concurrency in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/unstructured-concurrency-with-detached-tasks-in-swift/">Unstructured Concurrency With Detached Tasks in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/understanding-actors-in-the-new-concurrency-model-in-swift/">Understanding Actors in the New Concurrency Model in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/mainactor-and-global-actors-in-swift">@MainActor and Global Actors in Swift</a></li> <li><strong>Sharing Data Across Tasks with the @TaskLocal property wrapper in the new Swift Concurrency Model</strong></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/using-asyncsequence-in-swift/">Using AsyncSequence in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-swift-concurrency-summary-cheatsheet-thanks/">Modern Swift Concurrency Summary, Cheatsheet, and Thanks</a></li> </ol> <hr> <p>Sharing Data Across Tasks with @TaskLocal with the new Swift Concurrency Model</p>https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/mainactor-and-global-actors-in-swift/Wed, 11 Aug 2021 07:00:00 -0400https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/mainactor-and-global-actors-in-swift/<p><em>This article is part of my <a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-concurrency-in-swift-introduction/">Modern Concurrency in Swift Article Series</a>.</em></p> <h6 id="table-of-contents">Table of Contents</h6> <ol> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-concurrency-in-swift-introduction/">Modern Concurrency in Swift: Introduction</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/understanding-async-await-in-swift/">Understanding async/await in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/converting-closure-based-code-into-async-await-in-swift/">Converting closure-based code into async/await in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/structured-concurrency-in-swift-using-async-let/">Structured Concurrency in Swift: Using async let</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/structured-concurrency-with-group-tasks-in-swift/">Structured Concurrency With Task Groups in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/introduction-to-unstructured-concurrency-in-swift/">Introduction to Unstructured Concurrency in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/unstructured-concurrency-with-detached-tasks-in-swift/">Unstructured Concurrency With Detached Tasks in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/understanding-actors-in-the-new-concurrency-model-in-swift/">Understanding Actors in the New Concurrency Model in Swift</a></li> <li><strong>@MainActor and Global Actors in Swift</strong></li> <li><a href="posts/sharing-data-across-tasks-tasklocal-new-swift-concurrency-model">Sharing Data Across Tasks with the @TaskLocal property wrapper in the new Swift Concurrency Model</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/using-asyncsequence-in-swift/">Using AsyncSequence in Swift</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-swift-concurrency-summary-cheatsheet-thanks/">Modern Swift Concurrency Summary, Cheatsheet, and Thanks</a></li> </ol> <hr> <p>We have recently talked about <a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/understanding-actors-in-the-new-concurrency-model-in-swift/">actors</a>, what they are, and how to use them.

Whether it is a task updating a value at the same time another task is reading it or two tasks writing a value so that it it has an invalid value, data races are probably the main pain point of concurrency. Data races are very easy create, and hard to debug. There are entire books dedicated to the problem of data races and established patterns to avoid them.</p>https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/unstructured-concurrency-with-detached-tasks-in-swift/Wed, 28 Jul 2021 07:00:00 -0400https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/unstructured-concurrency-with-detached-tasks-in-swift/<p><em>This article is part of my <a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-concurrency-in-swift-introduction/">Modern Concurrency in Swift Article Series</a>.</em></p> <p><em>This article was originally written creating examples using Xcode 13 beta 1.

There&rsquo;s no way around it. While async/await are not the only <a href="https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/multithreading-options-on-apple-platforms/">concurrency options</a>, Apple&rsquo;s SDKs are starting to make heavy use of them. There is no doubt that third-party library providers will start offering these as well.</p>https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-concurrency-in-swift-introduction/Wed, 16 Jun 2021 07:00:00 -0400https://www.andyibanez.com/posts/modern-concurrency-in-swift-introduction/<h1 id="introduction">Introduction</h1> <p><em>This article series was originally written creating examples using Xcode 13 beta 1. The articles in the series, code samples, and provided sample projects have been updated for Xcode 13 beta 3.</em></p> <p>This is a tutorial series focused on the new async/await APIs Apple introduced in WWDC2021. I do not know how many articles it is going to have yet, but they will be posted in the upcoming weeks.</p>
