pub struct Once<T> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description
A synchronization primitive which can be used to run a one-time global initialization. Unlike its std equivalent, this is generalized so that the closure returns a value and it is stored. Once therefore acts something like a future, too.
Examples
use spin;
static START: spin::Once<()> = spin::Once::new();
START.call_once(|| {
// run initialization here
});
Implementations§
source§impl<T> Once<T>
impl<T> Once<T>
sourcepub fn call_once<'a, F>(&'a self, builder: F) -> &'a Twhere
F: FnOnce() -> T,
pub fn call_once<'a, F>(&'a self, builder: F) -> &'a Twhere
F: FnOnce() -> T,
Performs an initialization routine once and only once. The given closure
will be executed if this is the first time call_once
has been called,
and otherwise the routine will not be invoked.
This method will block the calling thread if another initialization routine is currently running.
When this function returns, it is guaranteed that some initialization has run and completed (it may not be the closure specified). The returned pointer will point to the result from the closure that was run.
Examples
use spin;
static INIT: spin::Once<usize> = spin::Once::new();
fn get_cached_val() -> usize {
*INIT.call_once(expensive_computation)
}
fn expensive_computation() -> usize {
// ...
}
