Interface CompletableDeferred<T>

All Superinterfaces:

Deferred<T>, Job

public CompletableDeferred<T>
extends Deferred<T>

A interface Deferred that can be completed via public functions CompletableDeferred.complete, CompletableDeferred.completeExceptionally, and cancel.

Completion functions return false when this deferred value is already complete or completing.

An instance of completable deferred can be created by CompletableDeferred() function in active state.

All functions on this interface and on all interfaces derived from it are thread-safe and can be safely invoked from concurrent coroutines without external synchronization.

Method Detail

complete

boolean complete(T value)

Completes this deferred value with a given value. The result is true if this deferred was completed as a result of this invocation and false otherwise (if it was already completed).

Repeated invocations of this function have no effect and always produce false.

completeExceptionally

boolean completeExceptionally(java.lang.Throwable exception)

Completes this deferred value exceptionally with a given exception. The result is true if this deferred was completed as a result of this invocation and false otherwise (if it was already completed).

Repeated invocations of this function have no effect and always produce false.
