Struct pawawwewism::Background

pub struct Background<R> { /* private fields */ }

A simple run-to-completion background thread.

Created with the freestanding background function.

This is an owned thread that runs a closure to completion and returns the result back to the owning thread when it calls Background::join.

Calling Background::join or dropping a Background object will join the thread. If the thread panicked, the panic will be propagated to the owner.
