Waithandle
A Rust library that makes signaling between threads a bit more ergonomic.
Uses Condvar and Mutex under the hood to block threads without consuming CPU time.
Usage
use std::time::Duration;
// Create the signaler and the listener
let (signaler, listener) = waithandle::new();
// Signal a thread
signaler.signal();
// Did someone signal us?
if listener.check() {
println!("signal received");
}
// Wait for 5 seconds or until someone signals us
if listener.wait(Duration::from_secs(5)) {
println!("signal received");
}Running the example
