threadbeam

A simple, specialized channel type for beaming data out of a newly spawned thread.

Usage

First, add threadbeam to your crate's dependencies in Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] threadbeam = "0"

Examples

```rust let (tx, rx) = threadbeam::channel();

std::thread::spawn(move || { tx.send(String::from("Hello, world!")); });

let hello = rx.recv(); asserteq!(hello.asderef(), Some("Hello, world!")); ```

```rust let (hello, thread) = threadbeam::spawn(move |tx| { tx.send(String::from("Hello, world!")); // your code... String::from("Thread completed!") });

asserteq!(hello.asderef(), Some("Hello, world!")); asserteq!(thread.join().ok().asderef(), Some("Thread completed!")); ```

parking_lot

To use parking_lot instead of the standard library's implementations of Condvar and Mutex, enable the parking_lot feature in your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] threadbeam = { version = "0", features = ["parking_lot"] }

no_std via spin

For no_std environments, enable the no_std feature in your Cargo.toml:

This will use spin as the provider of the Mutex implementation.

toml [dependencies] threadbeam = { version = "0", features = ["no_std"] }
