Crate sendify

An unsafe crate to wrap a reference to make it Send + Sync to be able to transfer it between threads. Make sure the reference is still valid when unwrapping it.

Examples

use std::thread;

fn main() {
    let data = "my string".to_owned();

    let ref_val = &data;
    // Wrap the reference to make it Send + Sync.
    let sendify_val = sendify::wrap(ref_val);

    thread::spawn(move || {
        // Unwrap the reference, here make sure that reference is still valid otherwise
        // the app might crash.
        let ref_val = unsafe { sendify_val.unwrap() };
        assert_eq!(ref_val, "my string")
    })
    .join()
    .unwrap();

    assert_eq!(data, "my string")
}
