Thread

Implementations

Creates a new green thread.

The returning value of the closure will be available as #value of the thread

Examples
use rutie::{Fixnum, Thread, VM};

Thread::new(|| {
    let computation_result = 1 + 2;

    Fixnum::new(computation_result)
});

Ruby:

Thread.new do
  computation_result = 1 + 2

  computation_result
end

Tells scheduler to switch to other threads while current thread is waiting for a readable event on the given file descriptor.

Examples
use std::os::unix::io::AsRawFd;
use std::os::unix::net::UnixStream;

use rutie::{Thread, VM};

let (unix_socket, _) = UnixStream::pair().unwrap();

Thread::wait_fd(unix_socket.as_raw_fd());

Release GVL for current thread.

Warning! Due to MRI limitations, interaction with Ruby objects is not allowed while GVL is released, it may cause unexpected behaviour. Read more at Ruby documentation

You should extract all the information from Ruby world before invoking thread_call_without_gvl.

GVL will be re-acquired when the closure is finished.

Examples
#[macro_use] extern crate rutie;

use rutie::{Class, Fixnum, Object, Thread};

class!(Calculator);

methods!(
    Calculator,
    itself,

    fn heavy_computation() -> Fixnum {
        let computation = || { 2 * 2 };
        let unblocking_function = || {};

        // release GVL for current thread until `computation` is completed
        let result = Thread::call_without_gvl(
            computation,
            Some(unblocking_function)
        );

        // GVL is re-acquired, we can interact with Ruby-world
        Fixnum::new(result)
    }
);

fn main() {
    Class::new("Calculator", None).define(|itself| {
        itself.def("heavy_computation", heavy_computation);
    });
}
