Struct gtk_future_executor::Promise

pub struct Promise<T, E> { /* fields omitted */ }

Promise is a future that can be completed or failed with resolve or reject methods.

Promise object is freely cloneable (all clones refer to the same underlying object) and is thread-safe.

Promise objects are handy for integrating Future-based code with non-Future based code.

Example:

// A function that shows the window;
// returned future that will be resolved when the windows is closed.
fn gui_main() -> impl Future<Item=(), Error=()> {
    let promise = Promise::new();
 
    let window = gtk::Window::new(gtk::WindowType::TopLevel);
 
    {
        // Make a clone of promise since it will be moved into closure
        let promise = promise.clone();
        window.connect_delete_event(move |_,_| {
            // When window is closed the promise will be resolved
            promise.resolve(());
 
            Inhibit(false)
        });
    }
 
    window.show_all();
 
    promise
}

Methods

impl<T, E> Promise<T, E>

pub fn new() -> Promise<T, E>

Construct a new promise

pub fn resolve(&self, result: T)

Complete the promise with specified value. Once this method is called, no further calls to resolve() or reject() should be made.

pub fn reject(&self, error: E)

Complete the promise with specified error. Once this method is called, no further calls to resolve() or reject() should be made.
