ThreadSafeCollections-FP

ThreadSafeCollections-FP provides familiar collection APIs with per-instance synchronization, bulk operations, and documented iteration behavior for Free Pascal and Lazarus. It is a learning-focused project with a tested core, runnable examples, and no required packages beyond the Free Pascal standard distribution.

What you can do#

Each collection instance owns one TCriticalSection and exposes the same familiar operations you expect from a non-threaded collection, synchronized per method call. Choose a collection below, then read the guide that matches your task.

• List — indexed storage with add, insert, delete, range, sort, search,

reverse, and capacity operations.

• Deque — a circular-buffer double-ended queue with Push/Pop/Peek*

and Try* operations at both ends.

• Dictionary — chained hash buckets for key/value storage with custom hash

and equality functions and snapshot-based iteration.

• Hash set — unique values with intersection, union, difference, overlap,

and set-equality operations, plus specialized integer, string, Boolean, and real subclasses.
