Function foundationdb::boot

pub unsafe fn boot() -> NetworkAutoStop

Initialize the FoundationDB Client API, this can only be called once per process.

Returns

A NetworkAutoStop handle which must be dropped before the program exits.

Safety

This method used to be safe in version 0.4. But because drop on the returned object might not be called before the program exits, it was found unsafe. You should prefer the safe run variant. If you still want to use this, you MUST ensure drop is called on the returned object before the program exits. This is not required if the program is aborted.

Examples

let network = unsafe { foundationdb::boot() };
// do some interesting things with the API...
drop(network);

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let network = unsafe { foundationdb::boot() };
    // do some interesting things with the API...
    drop(network);
}
