what exactly does this do? are all members _gshared?
In this case __gshared is a complete NOOP. __gshared has only
an effect on variables. It prevents them to reside in the TLS,
so that they can be used by any thread of the program (even if
then critical sections or atomic read/write are then necessary).
Static means that the declaration is like if in the global
scope:
void main()
{
static struct Foo{}
}
is like
struct Foo{}
void main(string[] args)
{}
It's not considered nested anymore.
Ok, Does that mean
void main()
{
static struct Foo{}
foo();
}
void foo()
{
Foo f;
}
works?
Also, then how do I declare a struct to be "global" so that it
can be common to all threads? Do I have to declare _gshared for
each element of the struct?
