<div class='docblock'><p>Tasks used to drive a future computation</p>
<p>It's intended over time a particular operation (such as servicing an HTTP
request) will involve many futures. This entire operation, however, can be
thought of as one unit, as the entire result is essentially just moving
through one large state machine.</p>
<p>A &quot;task&quot; is the unit of abstraction for what is driving this state machine
and tree of futures forward. A task is used to poll futures and schedule
futures with, and has utilities for sharing data between tasks and handles
for notifying when a future is ready. Each task also has its own set of
task-local data generated by <code>task_local!</code>.</p>
<p>Note that libraries typically should not manage tasks themselves, but rather
leave that to event loops and other &quot;executors&quot; (see the <code>executor</code> module),
or by using the <code>wait</code> method to create and execute a task directly on the
current thread.</p>
<p>More information about the task model can be found <a href="https://tokio.rs/docs/going-deeper-futures/futures-model/">online at tokio.rs</a>.</p>
<h2 id="functions" class="section-header"><a href="#functions">Functions</a></h2>
<p>There is an important bare function in this module: <code>current</code>. The
<code>current</code> function returns a handle to the currently running task, panicking
if one isn't present. This handle is then used to later notify the task that
it's ready to make progress through the <code>Task::notify</code> method.</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>)
