pub struct Waker { /* private fields */ }
Expand description
A Waker
is a handle for waking up a task by notifying its executor that it
is ready to be run.
This handle encapsulates a RawWaker
instance, which defines the
executor-specific wakeup behavior.
The typical life of a Waker
is that it is constructed by an executor, wrapped in a
Context
, then passed to Future::poll()
. Then, if the future chooses to return
Poll::Pending
, it must also store the waker somehow and call Waker::wake()
when
the future should be polled again.
Implements Clone
, Send
, and Sync
; therefore, a waker may be invoked
from any thread, including ones not in any way managed by the executor. For example,
this might be done to wake a future when a blocking function call completes on another
thread.
