Struct WatchHandle 

pub struct WatchHandle { /* private fields */ }

A running watch. Dropping it stops the watcher and waits for its thread to finish.

Held rather than detached on purpose: a background thread that outlives the handle its caller was given is a leak that only shows up as a build mysteriously running after the caller thought it had stopped.

Implementations

impl WatchHandle

pub fn stop(self)

Stop watching and wait for the watcher thread to finish.

Equivalent to dropping the handle; offered explicitly so a caller can stop at a chosen point rather than at end of scope.

Trait Implementations

impl Drop for WatchHandle

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.

fn pin_drop(self: Pin<&mut Self>)

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (pin_ergonomics)

Execute the destructor for this type, but different to Drop::drop, it requires self to be pinned.
