futures-rs v0.1.7 Release Notes

Release Date: 2016-12-18 // over 7 years ago
    • ➕ Add a Future::shared method for creating a future that can be shared amongst threads by cloning the future itself. All derivative futures will resolve to the same value once the original future has been resolved.
    • ➕ Add a FutureFrom trait for future-based conversion
    • 🛠 Fix a wakeup bug in Receiver::close
    • ➕ Add future::poll_fn for quickly adapting a Poll-based function to a future.
    • ➕ Add an Either enum with two branches to easily create one future type based on two different futures created on two branches of control flow.
    • ✂ Remove the 'static bound on Unpark
    • ⚡️ Optimize send_all and forward to send as many items as possible before calling poll_complete.
    • Unify the return types of the ok, err, and result future to assist returning different varieties in different branches of a function.
    • ➕ Add CpuFuture::forget to allow the computation to continue running after a drop.
    • ➕ Add a stream::futures_unordered combinator to turn a list of futures into a stream representing their order of completion.
