| A variable which requires unique access is being used in more than one closure |
| at the same time. |
| |
| Erroneous code example: |
| |
| ```compile_fail,E0524 |
| fn set(x: &mut isize) { |
| *x += 4; |
| } |
| |
| fn dragoooon(x: &mut isize) { |
| let mut c1 = || set(x); |
| let mut c2 = || set(x); // error! |
| |
| c2(); |
| c1(); |
| } |
| ``` |
| |
| To solve this issue, multiple solutions are available. First, is it required |
| for this variable to be used in more than one closure at a time? If it is the |
| case, use reference counted types such as `Rc` (or `Arc` if it runs |
| concurrently): |
| |
| ``` |
| use std::rc::Rc; |
| use std::cell::RefCell; |
| |
| fn set(x: &mut isize) { |
| *x += 4; |
| } |
| |
| fn dragoooon(x: &mut isize) { |
| let x = Rc::new(RefCell::new(x)); |
| let y = Rc::clone(&x); |
| let mut c1 = || { let mut x2 = x.borrow_mut(); set(&mut x2); }; |
| let mut c2 = || { let mut x2 = y.borrow_mut(); set(&mut x2); }; // ok! |
| |
| c2(); |
| c1(); |
| } |
| ``` |
| |
| If not, just run closures one at a time: |
| |
| ``` |
| fn set(x: &mut isize) { |
| *x += 4; |
| } |
| |
| fn dragoooon(x: &mut isize) { |
| { // This block isn't necessary since non-lexical lifetimes, it's just to |
| // make it more clear. |
| let mut c1 = || set(&mut *x); |
| c1(); |
| } // `c1` has been dropped here so we're free to use `x` again! |
| let mut c2 = || set(&mut *x); |
| c2(); |
| } |
| ``` |
