Struct Remote

pub struct Remote { /* private fields */ }

Handle to an event loop, used to construct I/O objects, send messages, and otherwise interact indirectly with the event loop itself.

Handles can be cloned, and when cloned they will still refer to the same underlying event loop.

Implementations

impl Remote

pub fn spawn<F, R>(&self, f: F)

where F: FnOnce(Executor) -> R + Send + 'static, R: IntoFuture<Item = (), Error = ()>, R::Future: 'static,

Spawns a new future into the event loop this remote is associated with.

This function takes a closure which is executed within the context of the I/O loop itself. The future returned by the closure will be scheduled on the event loop an run to completion.

Note that while the closure, F, requires the Send bound as it might cross threads, the future R does not.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Remote

fn clone(&self) -> Remote

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.
