2.9 sync.RWMutex

1. What It Is

• Implements the Locker interface and is a read-write lock
• Lock and RLock are used to acquire the write lock and read lock respectively
• Unlock and RUnlock are used to release the write lock and read lock respectively

2. Usage

const Size = 5

func TestSync3(t *testing.T) {
	data := make(map[int]int)
	var lock sync.RWMutex
	var wg sync.WaitGroup

	wg.Add(3)

	go func() {
		defer wg.Done()
		for i := 0; i < Size; i++ {
			lock.Lock()
			data[i] = i
			lock.Unlock()

			time.Sleep(time.Second)
		}
	}()

	for i := 0; i < 2; i++ {
		go func() {
			defer wg.Done()
			for {
				lock.RLock()
				fmt.Println(data)
				if len(data) == Size {
					lock.RUnlock()
					break
				} else {
					lock.RUnlock()
				}
			}
			time.Sleep(time.Millisecond * 500)
		}()

	}
	wg.Wait()
