Trait ordered_stream::OrderedFuture [−][src]
pub trait OrderedFuture {
type Ordering: Ord;
type Output;
fn poll_before(
self: Pin<&mut Self>,
cx: &mut Context<'_>,
before: Option<&Self::Ordering>
) -> Poll<Option<(Self::Ordering, Self::Output)>>;
}
Expand description
A Future
that produces an item with an associated ordering.
This is equivalent to an OrderedStream
that always produces exactly one item. This trait
is not very useful on its own; see FromFuture
to convert it to a stream.
It is valid to implement both Future
and OrderedFuture
on the
same type. In this case, unless otherwise documented by the implementing type, neither poll
function should be invoked after either returns an output value.
Associated Types
See OrderedStream::Data
.
Required methods
Attempt to pull out the value of this future, registering the current task for wakeup if
needed, and returning None
if it is known that the future will not produce a value
ordered before the given point.
Return value
There are several possible return values, each indicating a distinct state depending on the
value passed in before
:
-
If
before
wasNone
,Poll::Pending
means that this future’s value is not ready yet. Implementations will ensure that the current task is notified when the next value may be ready. -
If
before
wasSome
,Poll::Pending
means that this future’s value is not ready and that it is not yet known if the value will be ordered prior to the given ordering value. Implementations will ensure that the current task is notified when either the next value is ready or once it is known that no such value will be produced. -
Poll::Ready(Some(Data))
means that the future has successfully terminated. The returned ordering value may be greater than the value passed tobefore
. Thepoll_before
function should not be invoked again. -
Poll::Ready(None)
means that this future will not produce an ordering token less than the given token. It is an error to returnNone
ifbefore
wasNone
.
