nonparallel 0.1.0

Rust macro for ensuring non-parallel execution of functions.
Documentation
//! A procedural macro for Rust that allows you to ensure that functions (e.g.
//! unit tests) are not running at the same time.
//!
//! This is achieved by acquiring a mutex at the beginning of the annotated
//! function.
//!
//! Different functions can synchronize on different mutexes. That's why a
//! static mutex reference must be passed to the `nonparallel` annotation.
//!
//! ## Usage
//!
//! ```rust
//! use std::sync::Mutex;
//! use lazy_static::lazy_static;
//! use nonparallel::nonparallel;
//!
//! // Create two locks
//! lazy_static! { static ref MUT_A: Mutex<()> = Mutex::new(()); }
//! lazy_static! { static ref MUT_B: Mutex<()> = Mutex::new(()); }
//!
//! // Mutually exclude parallel runs of functions using those two locks
//!
//! #[nonparallel(MUT_A)]
//! fn function_a1() {
//!     // This will not run in parallel to function_a2
//! }
//!
//! #[nonparallel(MUT_A)]
//! fn function_a2() {
//!     // This will not run in parallel to function_a1
//! }
//!
//! #[nonparallel(MUT_B)]
//! fn function_b() {
//!     // This may run in parallel to function_a*
//! }
//! ```
