Struct druid::ExtEventSink

pub struct ExtEventSink { /* private fields */ }

A thing that can move into other threads and be used to submit commands back to the running application.

This API is preliminary, and may be changed or removed without warning.

Implementations

impl ExtEventSink

pub fn submit_command<T: Any + Send>(
    &self,
    selector: Selector<T>,
    payload: impl Into<Box<T>>,
    target: impl Into<Target>
) -> Result<(), ExtEventError>

Submit a Command to the running application.

Command is not thread safe, so you cannot submit it directly; instead you have to pass the Selector and the payload separately, and it will be turned into a Command when it is received.

The payload must implement Any + Send.

If the Target::Auto is equivalent to Target::Global.

pub fn add_idle_callback<T: 'static + Data>(
    &self,
    cb: impl FnOnce(&mut T) + Send + 'static
)

Schedule an idle callback.

T must be the application’s root Data type (the type provided to AppLauncher::launch).

Add an idle callback, which is called (once) when the message loop is empty. The idle callback will be run from the main UI thread.

Note: the name “idle” suggests that it will be scheduled with a lower priority than other UI events, but that’s not necessarily the case.
