pub struct Persistent<T> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

The wrapper for JS values to keep it from GC

For example you can store JS functions for later use.

let func = ctx.with(|ctx| {
    Persistent::save(ctx, ctx.eval::<Function, _>("a => a + 1").unwrap())
});
let res: i32 = ctx.with(|ctx| {
    let func = func.clone().restore(ctx).unwrap();
    func.call((2,)).unwrap()
});
assert_eq!(res, 3);
let res: i32 = ctx.with(|ctx| {
    let func = func.restore(ctx).unwrap();
    func.call((0,)).unwrap()
});
assert_eq!(res, 1);

It is an error (Error::UnrelatedRuntime) to restore the Persistent in a context who isn’t part of the original Runtime.

NOTE: Be careful and ensure that no persistent links outlives the runtime, otherwise Runtime will abort the process when dropped.
