24 /// Unlike [`EventLoop::run_app`], this function accepts non-`'static` (i.e. non-`move`)
25 /// closures and it is possible to return control back to the caller without
26 /// consuming the `EventLoop` (by using [`exit()`]) and
27 /// so the event loop can be re-run after it has exit.
28 ///
29 /// It's expected that each run of the loop will be for orthogonal instantiations of your
30 /// Winit application, but internally each instantiation may re-use some common window
31 /// system resources, such as a display server connection.
32 ///
33 /// This API is not designed to run an event loop in bursts that you can exit from and return
34 /// to while maintaining the full state of your application. (If you need something like this
35 /// you can look at the [`EventLoopExtPumpEvents::pump_app_events()`] API)
36 ///
37 /// Each time `run_app_on_demand` is called the startup sequence of `init`, followed by
38 /// `resume` is being preserved.
39 ///
40 /// See the [`set_control_flow()`] docs on how to change the event loop's behavior.
41 ///
42 /// # Caveats
43 /// - This extension isn't available on all platforms, since it's not always possible to return
44 /// to the caller (specifically this is impossible on iOS and Web - though with the Web
45 /// backend it is possible to use `EventLoopExtWebSys::spawn()`[^1] more than once instead).
46 /// - No [`Window`] state can be carried between separate runs of the event loop.
47 ///
48 /// You are strongly encouraged to use [`EventLoop::run_app()`] for portability, unless you
49 /// specifically need the ability to re-run a single event loop more than once
50 ///
51 /// # Supported Platforms
52 /// - Windows
53 /// - Linux
54 /// - macOS
55 /// - Android
56 ///
57 /// # Unsupported Platforms
58 /// - **Web:** This API is fundamentally incompatible with the event-based way in which Web
59 /// browsers work because it's not possible to have a long-running external loop that would
60 /// block the browser and there is nothing that can be polled to ask for new events. Events
61 /// are delivered via callbacks based on an event loop that is internal to the browser itself.
62 /// - **iOS:** It's not possible to stop and start an `UIApplication` repeatedly on iOS.
