<div class="descr"> <a name="details"></a>
<p>Qt uses an optimization called <a href="../qtcore/implicit-sharing.html#implicitly-shared-classes">implicit sharing</a> for many of its value classes.</p>
<p>Starting with Qt 4, all of Qt's implicitly shared classes can safely be copied across threads like any other value classes, i.e&#x2e;, they are fully <a href="threads-reentrancy.html">reentrant</a>. This is accomplished by implementing reference counting operations using atomic hardware instructions on all the different platforms supported by Qt.</p>
<p>To support a new architecture, it is important to ensure that these platform-specific atomic operations are implemented in a corresponding header file (<code>qatomic_ARCH.h</code>), and that this file is located in Qt's <code>src/corelib/arch</code> directory. For example, the Intel 80386 implementation is located in <code>src/corelib/arch/qatomic_i386.h</code>.</p>
<p>Currently, Qt provides two classes providing several atomic operations, <a href="../qtcore/qatomicint.html">QAtomicInt</a> and <a href="../qtcore/qatomicpointer.html">QAtomicPointer</a>. These classes inherit from QBasicAtomicInt and QBasicAtomicPointer, respectively.</p>
<p>When porting Qt to a new architecture, the QBasicAtomicInt and QBasicAtomicPointer classes must be implemented, <i>not</i> <a href="../qtcore/qatomicint.html">QAtomicInt</a> and <a href="../qtcore/qatomicpointer.html">QAtomicPointer</a>. The former classes do not have constructors, which makes them POD (plain-old-data). Both classes only have a single member variable called <code>_q_value</code>, which stores the value. This is the value that all of the atomic operations read and modify.</p>
<p>All of the member functions mentioned in the <a href="../qtcore/qatomicint.html">QAtomicInt</a> and <a href="../qtcore/qatomicpointer.html">QAtomicPointer</a> API documentation must be implemented. Note that these the implementations of the atomic operations in these classes must be atomic with respect to both interrupts and multiple processors.</p>
<p><b>Warning:</b> The QBasicAtomicInt and QBasicAtomicPointer classes mentioned in this document are used internally by Qt and are not part of the public API. They may change in future versions of Qt. The purpose of this document is to aid people interested in porting Qt to a new architecture.</p>
