Valuable-futures crate

A library that allows writing futures having a by-value state (or type-safe futures inspired by #458). This is very useful for implemention futures as state machines or enums.

lib.rs:

The crate provides by-value futures that make certain patterns easier and more typesafe

Examples | Github

There are two by-value future traits:

  • Future -- similar to normal future, but receives self by value. You must call into_future() to convert it to futures::Future
  • StateMachine -- similar to Future but also receives a mutable pointer of Supply type. Basically having both mutable state, and type-safe state machine. Converted to futures::Future by calling Supply::new

This crate also has it's own Async type that contains a new state in NotReady option.
