Struct ruru::Thread

pub struct Thread { /* fields omitted */ }

Thread

Methods

impl Thread

fn new<F, R>(func: F) -> Self where
    F: FnOnce() -> R,
    R: Object, 

Creates a new green thread.

The returning value of the closure will be available as #value of the thread

Examples

use ruru::{Fixnum, Thread, VM};

Thread::new(|| {
    let computation_result = 1 + 2;

    Fixnum::new(computation_result)
});

Ruby:

Thread.new do
  computation_result = 1 + 2

  computation_result
end

fn wait_fd(fd: RawFd)

Tells scheduler to switch to other threads while current thread is waiting for a readable event on the given file descriptor.

Examples

use std::os::unix::io::AsRawFd;
use std::os::unix::net::UnixStream;

use ruru::{Thread, VM};

let (unix_socket, _) = UnixStream::pair().unwrap();

Thread::wait_fd(unix_socket.as_raw_fd());

fn call_without_gvl<F, R, G>(func: F, unblock_func: Option<G>) -> R where
    F: FnOnce() -> R,
    G: FnOnce(), 

Release GVL for current thread.

Warning! Due to MRI limitations, interaction with Ruby objects is not allowed while GVL is released, it may cause unexpected behaviour. Read more at Ruby documentation

You should extract all the information from Ruby world before invoking thread_call_without_gvl.

GVL will be re-acquired when the closure is finished.

Examples

#[macro_use] extern crate ruru;

use ruru::{Class, Fixnum, Object, Thread};

class!(Calculator);

methods!(
    Calculator,
    itself,

    fn heavy_computation() -> Fixnum {
        let computation = || { 2 * 2 };
        let unblocking_function = || {};

        // release GVL for current thread until `computation` is completed
        let result = Thread::call_without_gvl(
            computation,
            Some(unblocking_function)
        );

        // GVL is re-acquired, we can interact with Ruby-world
        Fixnum::new(result)
    }
);

fn main() {
    Class::new("Calculator", None).define(|itself| {
        itself.def("heavy_computation", heavy_computation);
    });
}

fn call_without_gvl2<F, R, G>(func: F, unblock_func: Option<G>) -> R where
    F: FnOnce() -> R,
    G: FnOnce(), 

fn call_with_gvl<F, R>(func: F) -> R where
    F: FnOnce() -> R, 

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for Thread

fn fmt(&self, __arg_0: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for Thread

fn eq(&self, __arg_0: &Thread) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, __arg_0: &Thread) -> bool

This method tests for !=.

impl From<Value> for Thread

fn from(value: Value) -> Self

Performs the conversion.

impl Object for Thread

fn value(&self) -> Value

Returns internal value of current object.

fn class(&self) -> Class

Returns a class of current object.

fn singleton_class(&self) -> Class

Returns a singleton class of current object.
