Tokio v0.2.2

on GitHub

Primarily a release fix for basic_scheduler and task::LocalSet.

task::LocalSet was introduced in v0.2.1 and provides tooling to run !Send tasks. The task::LocalSet structure replaces the need to have separate runtimes. The advantage being that it can be used with the threaded runtime in order to run both Send futures across multiple threads and !Send futures on the current thread.

use tokio::runtime::Runtime;
use tokio::task;

use std::rc::Rc;

let unsend_data = Rc::new("my unsend data...");

let mut rt = Runtime::new().unwrap();

// Construct a local task set that can run `!Send` futures.
let local = task::LocalSet::new();

// Run the local task group.
local.block_on(&mut rt, async move {
    let unsend_data = unsend_data.clone();
    // `spawn_local` ensures that the future is spawned on the local
    // task group.
    task::spawn_local(async move {
        println!("{}", unsend_data);
        // ...
    }).await.unwrap();
});
