Swift

associatedtype Element


                      
                      
                      on(event:)

Register a callback/continuation block for when the Future fulfills.

Note

this prevents blocking execution of calling thread, the callback is invoked from the producing thread/queue

Swift

func on(event block: @escaping Consumer<FutureEvent<Element>>)


                                  block

The callback to invoke when the event has become available


                      
                      
                      cancel(mayInterruptIfRunning:)

Cancel the execution (when possible)

Swift

func cancel(mayInterruptIfRunning flag: Bool) -> Bool


                                  flag

whether to send an interrupt to the executing thread when already executing

false when the task could not be cancelled, true when cancelled successfully


                      
                      
                      done
