Hey. I have a Javascript Promise/A+ background. Trying to understand the API reference, cause it's hard to find any examples for the library usage in the Net.
The question is how to create a pending Promise?
I use multiple constructor functions like: Concurrent::Promises.future and Concurrent::Promises.zip_futures (aka Promise.all) and both start to invoke resolver immediately.
I want to be able to resolve explicitly with the wait/result/value method.
Instead, now I need to add an unneeded condition like this:result.wait unless result.fulfilled?
Thanks.
@Hyperc0der_twitter here's a GitHub search that has plenty of code examples:
I do though think most usages are executing the promise and resolving.
Channel.go
Concurrent::Channel.go do
loop do
Concurrent::Channel.select do |s|
s.take(somechannel) {
#do something
}
s.take(otherchannel) {
# dosomething
}
end
end
end- Have you verified the loop is broken? For example, by puts-ing a message after the loop-end. I don't see an block-breaking return or throw in what you posted.
- Concurrent ruby typically runs things on a global thread pool that will manage, reuse and recycle threads on its own. So if you're confident that the thread isn't doing any work, it shouldn't need to be actively killed.
