Class Documentation

class Executor

An executor abstraction mostly compatible with C++ proposal N4414.

As specified in http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2015/p0008r0.pdf

This should hopefully be compatible with whatever the C++ Executors and Schedulers group come up with as a final design, and will eventually be replaced by the standard version.

If not, this minimal interface should be easy to implement on top of whatever emerges from the standards body.

Subclassed by mir::NonBlockingExecutor
