blocking the executor.</p>
<p>In general, issuing a blocking call or performing a lot of compute in a
future without yielding is problematic, as it may prevent the executor
from driving other tasks forward. Calling this function informs the
executor that the currently executing task is about to block the thread,
so the executor is able to hand off any other tasks it has to a new
worker thread before that happens. See the <a href="../index.html#cpu-bound-tasks-and-blocking-code">CPU-bound tasks and blocking
code</a> section for more information.</p>
<p>Be aware that although this function avoids starving other independently
spawned tasks, any other code running concurrently in the same task will
be suspended during the call to <code>block_in_place</code>. This can happen e.g.
when using the <a href="../macro.join.html" title="macro tokio::join"><code>join!</code></a> macro. To avoid this issue, use
<a href="fn.spawn_blocking.html" title="fn tokio::task::spawn_blocking"><code>spawn_blocking</code></a> instead of <code>block_in_place</code>.</p>
<p>Note that this function cannot be used within a <a href="../runtime/struct.Builder.html#method.new_current_thread" title="associated function tokio::runtime::Builder::new_current_thread"><code>current_thread</code></a> runtime
because in this case there are no other worker threads to hand off tasks
to. On the other hand, calling the function outside a runtime is
allowed. In this case, <code>block_in_place</code> just calls the provided closure
normally.</p>
<p>Code running behind <code>block_in_place</code> cannot be cancelled. When you shut
down the executor, it will wait indefinitely for all blocking operations
to finish. You can use <a href="../runtime/struct.Runtime.html#method.shutdown_timeout" title="method tokio::runtime::Runtime::shutdown_timeout"><code>shutdown_timeout</code></a> to stop waiting for them
after a certain timeout. Be aware that this will still not cancel the
tasks — they are simply allowed to keep running after the method
returns.</p>
