Module task 

Functions

dispatch

Spawns a new asynchronous task in the background without a handle. Basically the same as spawn.

spawn

Spawns a new asynchronous task in the background, returning a Future JoinHandle for it.

spawn_abortable

Spawns a new asynchronous task in the background, returning an abortable handle that will cancel the task once the handle is dropped.

spawn_coroutine

Spawns a new asynchronous task that accepts messages to the task using channels. This function returns a handle that allows sending a message, or if there is no reference to the handle at all (in other words, all handles are dropped), the task would be aborted.

spawn_coroutine_with_context

Spawns a new asynchronous task with provided context that accepts messages to the task using channels. This function returns a handle that allows sending a message, or if there is no reference to the handle at all (in other words, all handles are dropped), the task would be aborted.

spawn_unbounded_coroutine

Spawns a new asynchronous task that accepts messages to the task using channels. This function returns a handle that allows sending a message, or if there is no reference to the handle at all (in other words, all handles are dropped), the task would be aborted.

spawn_unbounded_coroutine_with_context

Spawns a new asynchronous task with provided context that accepts messages to the task using channels. This function returns a handle that allows sending a message, or if there is no reference to the handle at all (in other words, all handles are dropped), the task would be aborted.

yield_now

Yields execution back to the runtime
