<T>(oldValue: T, newValue: T): (self: MutableRef<T>) => boolean
<T>(self: MutableRef<T>, oldValue: T, newValue: T): booleanSets the value to newValue atomically if the current value equals oldValue. Returns true if the value was updated, false otherwise. Uses Effect's Equal interface for value comparison.
When to use
Use to replace a MutableRef value only when the current value still matches
an expected value.
Example (Comparing and setting values)
import { MutableRef } from "effect"
const ref = MutableRef.make("initial")
// Successful compare and set
const updated = MutableRef.compareAndSet(ref, "initial", "updated")
console.log(updated) // true
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // "updated"
// Failed compare and set (value doesn't match)
const failed = MutableRef.compareAndSet(ref, "initial", "failed")
console.log(failed) // false
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // "updated" (unchanged)
// Thread-safe counter increment
const counter = MutableRef.make(5)
let current: number
do {
current = MutableRef.get(counter)
} while (!MutableRef.compareAndSet(counter, current, current + 1))
// Pipe-able version
const casUpdate = MutableRef.compareAndSet("updated", "final")
console.log(casUpdate(ref)) // trueexport const const compareAndSet: {
<T>(oldValue: T, newValue: T): (

self: interface MutableRef<out T>A synchronous mutable reference that stores a current value.
When to use
Use to keep local mutable state in a stable, pipeable reference.
Details
Read or write the value directly through .current, or use the MutableRef
helpers for pipeable updates such as get, set, update, and
compareAndSet. All operations mutate the same reference in place.
Example (Creating and updating refs)
import { MutableRef } from "effect"

const ref: MutableRef.MutableRef<number> = MutableRef.make(42)
// Read the current value
console.log(ref.current) // 42
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // 42
// Update the value
ref.current = 100
console.log(MutableRef.get(ref)) // 100
// Use with complex types
