std::jthread::swap

void swap( std::jthread& other ) noexcept;
(since C++20)

Exchanges the underlying handles of two jthread objects.

Parameters

other - the jthread to swap with

Return value

(none).

Example

#include <iostream>
#include <thread>
#include <chrono>
 
void foo()
{
    std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(1));
}
 
void bar()
{
    std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::seconds(1));
}
 
int main()
{
    std::jthread t1(foo);
    std::jthread t2(bar);
 
    std::cout << "thread 1 id: " << t1.get_id() << '\n'
              << "thread 2 id: " << t2.get_id() << '\n';
 
    std::swap(t1, t2);
 
    std::cout << "after std::swap(t1, t2):" << '\n'
              << "thread 1 id: " << t1.get_id() << '\n'
              << "thread 2 id: " << t2.get_id() << '\n';
 
    t1.swap(t2);
 
    std::cout << "after t1.swap(t2):" << '\n'
              << "thread 1 id: " << t1.get_id() << '\n'
              << "thread 2 id: " << t2.get_id() << '\n';
 
 
}

Possible output:

thread 1 id: 140185268262656
thread 2 id: 140185259869952
after std::swap(t1, t2):
thread 1 id: 140185259869952
thread 2 id: 140185268262656
after t1.swap(t2):
thread 1 id: 140185268262656
thread 2 id: 140185259869952
