Expand description
A simple crate to create a promise/future pair.
Promise/future pair is a very common pattern in other languages. You can think it as a oneshot channel, but it’s only one way future. The crate is also executor independent.
§Usage
Include it in cargo dependency:
mrwei = "0.1"You can use pair to create an instance of future and promise.
let (f, p) = mrwei::pair::<Type>();You probably need to either move the future or the promise to another thread and await or set a value respectively. When the promise is offered a value, the corresponding future will also be notified.
Structs§
- Future
- A future waiting for the remote value set by
Promise. - Promise
- A struct that accepts a value and notify the corresponding future.
- Waste
- An error indicates either future or promise is dropped before the other end makes any actions.
Functions§
- pair
- Creates a pair of future/promise.
