Module asynchronous.tasks

Support for tasks, coroutines and the scheduler.

Functions

Name	Description
`asCompleted`	Return a generator whose values, when waited for, are Future instances in the order they complete.
`ensureFuture`	Schedule the execution of a `coroutine`: wrap it in a future. Return a `Task` object.
`shield`	Wait for a future, shielding it from cancellation.
`sleep`	Create a coroutine that completes after a given time. If `result` is provided, it is produced to the caller when the coroutine completes.
`wait`	Wait for the Future instances given by `futures` to complete.
`waitFor`	Wait for the single Future to complete with `timeout`. If `timeout` is 0 or negative, block until the `future` completes.
`yieldValue`	Yield a `value` to the caller of the currently executing generator task. The type of the yielded `value` and the type of the generator must be the same.

Name	Description
`GeneratorTask`	A `GeneratorTask` is a `Task` that periodically returns values of type T to the caller via `yieldValue`. This is represented as an InputRange.
`Task`	Schedule the execution of a fiber: wrap it in a future. A task is a subclass of Future.
