Questions with 'erasing' elements when iterating about libcuckoo HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @DJuego,

The reason you're getting a deadlock is that whenever you create a locked table, the object takes all the locks on the table, so no operations on the original table object will work. Currently the locked table only supports spawning iterators, but we could certainly add the functionality to do all the normal table operations (like find, insert, erase, etc) on the locked table.

For now, unfortunately, there's no good work around for this that I can think of, since unlocking and re-locking the table to erase an element would be pretty inefficient. I'll try to add the functionality you're looking for soon.

Thanks for your swift answer!

Yes. I suspected it. :-) However; i was unable to find the erase operation in the locked table. I was pretty confused. That's why I believed that there was an alternative approach... Your answer comforts me somehow, :-)

Thanks! I will be awaiting eagerly. :-P You can be sure! :-)

This should be doable on future-master now.
