Struct ThreadState

pub struct ThreadState { /* private fields */ }

State held by ThreadPool for sending and receiving TaskInFlights between it and a thread.

Returned from Platform::spawn_pool_thread, multiple of these are used to create a ThreadPool.

Implementations

impl ThreadState

pub fn new( sender_to_thread: TaskSender, receiver_from_thread: TaskReceiver, ) -> ThreadState

Creates a new ThreadState from the relevant channel endpoints.

sender_to_thread is used to send tasks to the thread, while receiver_from_thread is used to receive finished tasks, so there should be two channels for each thread.

To implement a simple single-threaded ThreadPool, the sender and receiver of just one channel could be passed here, in which case ThreadPool will run the task when joining that task in ThreadPool::join_task.
