//! Threads that can borrow variables from the stack.
//!
//! Create a scope when spawned threads need to access variables on the stack:
//!
//! ```
//! use crossbeam_utils::thread;
//!
//! let people = vec![
//!     "Alice".to_string(),
//!     "Bob".to_string(),
//!     "Carol".to_string(),
//! ];
//!
//! thread::scope(|s| {
//!     for person in &people {
//!         s.spawn(move |_| {
//!             println!("Hello, {}!", person);
//!         });
//!     }
//! }).unwrap();
//! ```
//!
//! # Why scoped threads?
//!
//! Suppose we wanted to re-write the previous example using plain threads:
//!
//! ```compile_fail,E0597
//! use std::thread;
//!
//! let people = vec![
//!     "Alice".to_string(),
//!     "Bob".to_string(),
//!     "Carol".to_string(),
//! ];
//!
//! let mut threads = Vec::new();
//!
//! for person in &people {
//!     threads.push(thread::spawn(move || {
//!         println!("Hello, {}!", person);
//!     }));
//! }
//!
//! for thread in threads {
//!     thread.join().unwrap();
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! This doesn't work because the borrow checker complains about `people` not living long enough:
//!
//! ```text
//! error[E0597]: `people` does not live long enough
//!   --> src/main.rs:12:20
//!    |
//! 12 |     for person in &people {
//!    |                    ^^^^^^ borrowed value does not live long enough
//! ...
//! 21 | }
//!    | - borrowed value only lives until here
//!    |
//!    = note: borrowed value must be valid for the static lifetime...
//! ```
//!
//! The problem here is that spawned threads are not allowed to borrow variables on stack because
//! the compiler cannot prove they will be joined before `people` is destroyed.
//!
//! Scoped threads are a mechanism to guarantee to the compiler that spawned threads will be joined
//! before the scope ends.
//!
//! # How scoped threads work
//!
//! If a variable is borrowed by a thread, the thread must complete before the variable is
//! destroyed. Threads spawned using [`std::thread::spawn`] can only borrow variables with the
//! `'static` lifetime because the borrow checker cannot be sure when the thread will complete.
//!
//! A scope creates a clear boundary between variables outside the scope and threads inside the
//! scope. Whenever a scope spawns a thread, it promises to join the thread before the scope ends.
//! This way we guarantee to the borrow checker that scoped threads only live within the scope and
//! can safely access variables outside it.
//!
//! # Nesting scoped threads
//!
//! Sometimes scoped threads need to spawn more threads within the same scope. This is a little
//! tricky because argument `s` lives *inside* the invocation of `thread::scope()` and as such
//! cannot be borrowed by scoped threads:
//!
//! ```compile_fail,E0373,E0521
//! use crossbeam_utils::thread;
//!
//! thread::scope(|s| {
//!     s.spawn(|_| {
//!         // Not going to compile because we're trying to borrow `s`,
//!         // which lives *inside* the scope! :(
//!         s.spawn(|_| println!("nested thread"));
//!     });
//! });
//! ```
//!
//! Fortunately, there is a solution. Every scoped thread is passed a reference to its scope as an
//! argument, which can be used for spawning nested threads:
//!
//! ```
//! use crossbeam_utils::thread;
//!
//! thread::scope(|s| {
//!     // Note the `|s|` here.
//!     s.spawn(|s| {
//!         // Yay, this works because we're using a fresh argument `s`! :)
//!         s.spawn(|_| println!("nested thread"));
//!     });
//! }).unwrap();
//! ```
