This crate provides multi-producer multi-consumer channels for message passing.
It is an alternative to std::sync::mpsc
with more features and better performance.
Some highlights:
Sender
s andReceiver
s can be cloned and shared among threads.- Two main kinds of channels are
bounded
andunbounded
. - Convenient extra channels like
after
,never
, andtick
. - The
select!
macro can block on multiple channel operations. Select
can select over a dynamically built list of channel operations.- Channels use locks very sparingly for maximum performance.
