We ofter use movewith closures passed to thread::spawnbecase the closure will then take ownership of the values it uses from the environment, thus transferring owershop of those values from one thread to another.

 

The following code won’t work:

use std::thread;

fn main() {
    let v = vec![1, 2, 3];

    let handle = thread::spawn(|| {
        println!("Here's a vector: {:?}", v);
    });

    handle.join().unwrap();
}

 

We run it, got following error:

$ cargo run
   Compiling threads v0.1.0 (file:///projects/threads)
error[E0373]: closure may outlive the current function, but it borrows `v`, which is owned by the current function

error: could not compile `threads` due to previous error

Rust infers hwo to capture v, and because println!only needs a reference to v, the closure tries to borrow v. However, there’s aproblem: Rust can’t tell how long the spawned thread will run, so it doesn’t know if the reference v will always be valid.

Why? See following example:

use std::thread;

fn main() {
    let v = vec![1, 2, 3];

    let handle = thread::spawn(|| {
        println!("Here's a vector: {:?}", v);
    });

    drop(v); // oh no!

    handle.join().unwrap();
}

We call drop(v) in main thread, so the child thread won’t be access to v anymore.

movekeyword force the clousre to take owership of the values it’s using rather than allowing Rust to infer that it should borrow the values.

use std::thread;

fn main() {
    let v = vec![1, 2, 3];

    let handle = thread::spawn(move || {
        println!("Here's a vector: {:?}", v);
    });

    handle.join().unwrap();
}

 

With the drop example, now it gave different error message:

$ cargo run
   Compiling threads v0.1.0 (file:///projects/threads)

   |         - move occurs because `v` has type `Vec<i32>`, which does not implement the `Copy` trait
