# sync_select

A short-circuiting (verbose) `std::thread::scope`.

## Example

```rust
use std::{thread::sleep, time::Duration};

use sync_select::*;

fn main() {
let s = SyncSelect::new();

// Task A (3rd to finish)
s.spawn(|| sleep(Duration::from_secs(3)));

// Task B (1st to finish => Subtask 1)
s.spawn_with(|s| {
// Task C (subtask of B) (1st to finish)
s.spawn(|| sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)));

// Task D (subtask of B) (2nd to finish)
s.spawn(|| sleep(Duration::from_secs(2)));
});

// In this specific scenario, Task B is first to die,
// because it short-circuits due to one of it's subtasks
// finishing. This causes the root to short-circuit,
// resulting in the program exiting.

// Note: scopes automatically short-circuit when dropped.
}
```

## Notes
- There is no "borrow non-'static data" functionality.

## Todo
- Better ergonomics
- `scope(...)` function or something.
- Maybe build a macro `select!` similar to tokio's [select!](https://docs.rs/tokio/1.41.1/tokio/macro.select.html) macro.
