# Function std::thread::sleep_ms 1.0.0[−][src]

    pub fn sleep_ms(ms: u32)

👎 Deprecated since 1.6.0:

replaced by `std::thread::sleep`

Puts the current thread to sleep for at least the specified amount of time.

The thread may sleep longer than the duration specified due to scheduling specifics or platform-dependent functionality. It will never sleep less.

This function is blocking, and should not be used in `async` functions.

# Platform-specific behavior

On Unix platforms, the underlying syscall may be interrupted by a spurious wakeup or signal handler. To ensure the sleep occurs for at least the specified duration, this function may invoke that system call multiple times.

# Examples

    use std::thread;

    // Let's sleep for 2 seconds:
    thread::sleep_ms(2000);
