Struct LoopGuard

pub struct LoopGuard { /* private fields */ }

Utility for preventing infinite loops

Use as a guard rail inside a loop block

Implementations

impl LoopGuard

pub fn new(max: i32) -> LoopGuard

Create a new LoopGuard

Make sure to create the LoopGuard instance outside the loop block

Arguments

• max_ticks - The limit of how many times a loop should run

use loop_guard::LoopGuard;

let mut guard = LoopGuard::new(10);

loop {
    guard.protect() // This will panic after 10 loops
}

pub fn set_panic_message(self, message: &str) -> Self

Set a custom panic message for a LoopGuard instance

pub fn protect(&mut self)

From within a while or loop block, panic if the loop iteration surpasses the LoopGuard’s max_ticks value.
