pub enum Either<A, B> {
    Left(A),
    Right(B),
}
Expand description

Combines two different futures, streams, or sinks having the same associated types into a single type.

This is useful when conditionally choosing between two distinct future types:

use futures::future::Either;

let cond = true;

let fut = if cond {
    Either::Left(async move { 12 })
} else {
    Either::Right(async move { 44 })
};

assert_eq!(fut.await, 12);

Variants

Left(A)

First branch of the type

Right(B)

Second branch of the type
