Future

abstract class Future[+T] extends Responder[T] with () ⇒ T

A function of arity 0, returing a value of type T that, when applied, blocks the current actor (Actor.self) until the future's value is available.

A future can be queried to find out whether its value is already available without blocking.

Annotations
@deprecated
Deprecated

(Since version 2.11.0) Use the scala.concurrent.Future instead. For migration from the scala.actors package refer to the Actors Migration Guide.
