* Normalize links to docs.rs/CRATE/M.N/...
docs.rs is smart enough to show docs for the latest M.N.P release when
M.N is used in the link. For example:
https://docs.rs/mio/0.6/mio/struct.Poll.html
..will show mio 0.6.14 and later docs. While using the `M.N.*`
(ASTERISK) syntax also works, `M.N` is the more common usage, so
standarize a few existing links to that format.
* Fix missing or malformed rustdoc links
* executor lib rustdoc minor format change
* Promote tokio-threadpool crate level comments to rustdoc
* Replace hidden tokio::executor::thread_pool docs with deprecation note
* Fix typo/simplify util module rustdoc
* Reuse some tokio::executor::thread_pool rustdoc for the crate
Relates to #421
This patch renames `Sleep` from tokio-timer and the tokio facade to
`Delay`. Given that the future does not actually put anything to sleep,
the `Delay` name feels more appropriate.
Fixes#263
This patch adds a new crate: tokio-timer. This crate provides an
efficient timer implemeentation designed for use in Tokio based
applications.
The timer users a hierarchical hashed timer wheel algorithm with six
levels, each having 64 slots. This allows the timer to have a resolution
of 1ms while maintaining O(1) complexity for insert, removal, and firing
of timeouts.
There already exists a tokio-timer crate. This is a complete rewrite
which solves the outstanding problems with the existing tokio-timer
library.
Closes#146.
