Add `#![type_alias_impl_trait]` to your crate, and use `cargo +nightly`. 2. Instead of `spawn_after` and `spawn_at`, you now use the `async` functions `delay`, `delay_until` (and related) with impls provided by `rtic-monotonics`. 3. Software tasks _must_ be `async fn`s now. Not returning from a task is allowed so long as there is an `await` in the task. You can still `lock` shared resources. diff --git a/book/en/src/migration/migration_v2/monotonics.md b/book/en/src/migration/migration_v2/monotonics.md index f794becb71..7427408ebb 100644 --- a/book/en/src/migration/migration_v2/monotonics.md +++ b/book/en/src/migration/migration_v2/monotonics.md @@ -8,4 +8,4 @@ The `#[monotonic]` attribute is no longer used.
