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

    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.

# 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);Run

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
