36/// Registers a function to run for every newly thread spawned.
37///
38/// The hook is executed in the parent thread, and returns a function
39/// that will be executed in the new thread.
40///
41/// The hook is called with the `Thread` handle for the new thread.
42///
43/// The hook will only be added for the current thread and is inherited by the threads it spawns.
44/// In other words, adding a hook has no effect on already running threads (other than the current
45/// thread) and the threads they might spawn in the future.
46///
47/// The hooks will run in reverse order, starting with the most recently added.
48///
49/// Hooks can only be added, not removed.
50/// Note that this does *not* mean that they are guaranteed to run. See [`Builder::no_hooks`].
51/// You cannot rely on a hook running for soundness.
52///
53/// # Usage
54///
55/// ```
56/// #![feature(thread_spawn_hook)]
57///
58/// std::thread::add_spawn_hook(|_| {
59///     ..; // This will run in the parent (spawning) thread.
60///     move || {
61///         ..; // This will run it the child (spawned) thread.
62///     }
63/// });
64/// ```
65///
66/// # Example
67///
68/// A spawn hook can be used to "inherit" a thread local from the parent thread:
69///
70/// ```
71/// #![feature(thread_spawn_hook)]
72///
73/// use std::cell::Cell;
74///
75/// thread_local! {
76///     static X: Cell<u32> = Cell::new(0);
77/// }
78///
79/// // This needs to be done once in the main thread before spawning any threads.
80/// std::thread::add_spawn_hook(|_| {
81///     // Get the value of X in the spawning thread.
82///     let value = X.get();
83///     // Set the value of X in the newly spawned thread.
84///     move || X.set(value)
85/// });
86///
87/// X.set(123);
88///
89/// std::thread::spawn(|| {
90///     assert_eq!(X.get(), 123);
91/// }).join().unwrap();
92/// ```
