Enum ControlFlow

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum ControlFlow {
    Poll,
    Wait,
    WaitUntil(Instant),
    ExitWithCode(i32),
}

Set by the user callback given to the EventLoop::run method.

Indicates the desired behavior of the event loop after Event::RedrawEventsCleared is emitted. Defaults to Poll.

Persistency

Almost every change is persistent between multiple calls to the event loop closure within a given run loop. The only exception to this is ExitWithCode which, once set, cannot be unset. Changes are not persistent between multiple calls to run_return - issuing a new call will reset the control flow to Poll.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Poll

When the current loop iteration finishes, immediately begin a new iteration regardless of whether or not new events are available to process.

Wait

When the current loop iteration finishes, suspend the thread until another event arrives.

WaitUntil(Instant)

When the current loop iteration finishes, suspend the thread until either another event arrives or the given time is reached.

ExitWithCode(i32)

Send a LoopDestroyed event and stop the event loop. This variant is sticky - once set, control_flow cannot be changed from ExitWithCode, and any future attempts to do so will result in the control_flow parameter being reset to ExitWithCode.

The contained number will be used as exit code. The Exit constant is a shortcut for this with exit code 0.

Platform-specific

• Android / iOS / WASM: The supplied exit code is unused.
• Unix: On most Unix-like platforms, only the 8 least significant bits will be used, which can cause surprises with negative exit values (-42 would end up as 214). See std::process::exit.

Implementations

impl ControlFlow

pub const Exit: Self = _

Alias for ExitWithCode(0).

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for ControlFlow

fn clone(&self) -> ControlFlow

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for ControlFlow

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for ControlFlow

fn default() -> ControlFlow

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl PartialEq for ControlFlow

fn eq(&self, other: &ControlFlow) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
