//! Tokio context aware futures utilities.
//!
//! This module includes utilities around integrating tokio with other runtimes
//! by allowing the context to be attached to futures. This allows spawning
//! futures on other executors while still using tokio to drive them. This
//! can be useful if you need to use a tokio based library in an executor/runtime
//! that does not provide a tokio context.

    /// `TokioContext` allows running futures that must be inside Tokio's
    /// context on a non-Tokio runtime.
    ///
    /// It contains a [`Handle`] to the runtime. A handle to the runtime can be
    /// obtain by calling the [`Runtime::handle()`] method.
    ///
    /// Note that the `TokioContext` wrapper only works if the `Runtime` it is
    /// connected to has not yet been destroyed. You must keep the `Runtime`
    /// alive until the future has finished executing.
    ///
    /// **Warning:** If `TokioContext` is used together with a [current thread]
    /// runtime, that runtime must be inside a call to `block_on` for the
    /// wrapped future to work. For this reason, it is recommended to use a
    /// [multi thread] runtime, even if you configure it to only spawn one
    /// worker thread.
    ///
    /// # Examples
    ///
    /// This example creates two runtimes, but only [enables time] on one of
    /// them. It then uses the context of the runtime with the timer enabled to
    /// execute a [`sleep`] future on the runtime with timing disabled.
    /// ```
