threadpool.</p>
<p>Futures are lazy constructs. When they are defined, no work happens. In
order for the logic defined by the future to be run, the future must be
spawned on an executor. This function is the easiest way to do so.</p>
<p>This function must be called from an execution context, i.e. from a future
that has been already spawned onto an executor.</p>
<p>Once spawned, the future will execute. The details of how that happens is
left up to the executor instance. If the executor is a thread pool, the
future will be pushed onto a queue that a worker thread polls from. If the
executor is a &quot;current thread&quot; executor, the future might be polled
immediately from within the call to <code>spawn</code> or it might be pushed onto an
internal queue.</p>
<h1 id="panics" class="section-header"><a href="#panics">Panics</a></h1>
<p>This function will panic if the default executor is not set or if spawning
onto the default executor returns an error. To avoid the panic, use the
<code>DefaultExecutor</code> handle directly.</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>)
