Rollup merge of rust-lang#94559 - m-ou-se:thread-scope-spawn-closure-without-arg, r=Mark-Simulacrum
Remove argument from closure in thread::Scope::spawn.
This implements ```@danielhenrymantilla's``` [suggestion](rust-lang#93203 (comment)) for improving the scoped threads interface.
Summary:
The `Scope` type gets an extra lifetime argument, which represents basically its own lifetime that will be used in `&'scope Scope<'scope, 'env>`:
```diff
- pub struct Scope<'env> { .. };
+ pub struct Scope<'scope, 'env: 'scope> { .. }
pub fn scope<'env, F, T>(f: F) -> T
where
- F: FnOnce(&Scope<'env>) -> T;
+ F: for<'scope> FnOnce(&'scope Scope<'scope, 'env>) -> T;
```
This simplifies the `spawn` function, which now no longer passes an argument to the closure you give it, and now uses the `'scope` lifetime for everything:
```diff
- pub fn spawn<'scope, F, T>(&'scope self, f: F) -> ScopedJoinHandle<'scope, T>
+ pub fn spawn<F, T>(&'scope self, f: F) -> ScopedJoinHandle<'scope, T>
where
- F: FnOnce(&Scope<'env>) -> T + Send + 'env,
+ F: FnOnce() -> T + Send + 'scope,
- T: Send + 'env;
+ T: Send + 'scope;
```
The only difference the user will notice, is that their closure now takes no arguments anymore, even when spawning threads from spawned threads:
```diff
thread::scope(|s| {
- s.spawn(|_| {
+ s.spawn(|| {
...
});
- s.spawn(|s| {
+ s.spawn(|| {
...
- s.spawn(|_| ...);
+ s.spawn(|| ...);
});
});
```
<details><summary>And, as a bonus, errors get <em>slightly</em> better because now any lifetime issues point to the outermost <code>s</code> (since there is only one <code>s</code>), rather than the innermost <code>s</code>, making it clear that the lifetime lasts for the entire <code>thread::scope</code>.

help: to force the closure to take ownership of `a` (and any other referenced variables), use the `move` keyword

</details>
The downside is that the signature of `scope` and `Scope` gets slightly more complex, but in most cases the user wouldn't need to write those, as they just use the argument provided by `thread::scope` without having to name its type.
Another downside is that this does not work nicely in Rust 2015 and Rust 2018, since in those editions, `s` would be captured by reference and not by copy. In those editions, the user would need to use `move ||` to capture `s` by copy. (Which is what the compiler suggests in the error.)2 files changed
