Struct Thread 

pub struct Thread(/* private fields */);

A representation of a JavaScript thread (Web worker with shared memory).

Implementations

impl Thread

pub fn new() -> Self

Spawn a new thread.

pub fn run<Context: Post, F: Future<Output: Post> + 'static>( &self, context: Context, code: impl FnOnce(Context) -> F + Send + 'static, ) -> Task<F::Output>

Execute a function on a thread.

The function will begin executing immediately. The resulting Task can be awaited to retrieve the result.

Arguments

context

A Postable context that will be sent across the thread boundary using postMessage and passed to the function on the other side.

code

A FnOnce implementation containing the code in question. The function is async, but will run on a Worker so may block (though doing so will block the thread!). The function itself must be Send, and Send values can be sent through in its closure, but once executed the resulting Future will not be moved, so needn’t be Send.

pub fn run_send<Context: Post, F: Future<Output: Send> + 'static>( &self, context: Context, code: impl FnOnce(Context) -> F + Send + 'static, ) -> SendTask<F::Output>

Like Thread::run, but the output can be sent through Rust memory without Posting.

Trait Implementations

impl Default for Thread

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl Drop for Thread

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.
