Here's my first attempt. async fn access<T, Fut, F>(data: &RwLock<String>, accessor: F) -> T where …

[image] vague: Another approach is more powerful: we have async_fn_in_trait now (in nightly Rust), which means you can just define your own async trait I've used the trick to write a bunch of macros: async_closure - Rust And the problem in this thread can be easily solved with it in nightly…
