<p>This trait is typically implemented for &quot;executors&quot;, or those types which
can execute futures to completion. Futures passed to <code>Spawn::spawn</code>
typically get turned into a <em>task</em> and are then driven to completion.</p>
<p>On spawn, the executor takes ownership of the future and becomes responsible
to call <code>Future::poll()</code> whenever a readiness notification is raised.</p>

&quot;background&quot;.</p>
<p>This function will return immediately, and schedule the future <code>future</code>
to run on <code>self</code>. The details of scheduling and execution are left to
the implementations of <code>Executor</code>, but this is typically a primary point
for injecting concurrency in a futures-based system. Futures spawned
through this <code>execute</code> function tend to run concurrently while they're
waiting on events.</p>
<h1 id="errors" class="section-header"><a href="#errors">Errors</a></h1>
<p>Implementers of this trait are allowed to reject accepting this future
as well. This can happen for various reason such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>The executor is shut down</li>
<li>The executor has run out of capacity to execute futures</li>
</ul>
<p>The decision is left to the caller how to work with this form of error.
The error returned transfers ownership of the future back to the caller.</p>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
