Package kotlinx.coroutines.tasks

Functions

fun <T> Task<T>.asDeferred(): Deferred<T>

Converts this task to an instance of Deferred. If task is cancelled then resulting deferred will be cancelled as well. However, the opposite is not true: if the deferred is cancelled, the Task will not be cancelled. For bi-directional cancellation, an overload that accepts CancellationTokenSource can be used.

@ExperimentalCoroutinesApi

fun <T> Task<T>.asDeferred(cancellationTokenSource: CancellationTokenSource): Deferred<T>

Converts this task to an instance of Deferred with a CancellationTokenSource to control cancellation. The cancellation of this function is bi-directional:

asTask

fun <T> Deferred<T>.asTask(): Task<T>

Converts this deferred to the instance of Task. If deferred is cancelled then resulting task will be cancelled as well.

await

suspend fun <T> Task<T>.await(): T

Awaits the completion of the task without blocking a thread.

@ExperimentalCoroutinesApi

suspend fun <T> Task<T>.await(cancellationTokenSource: CancellationTokenSource): T

Awaits the completion of the task that is linked to the given CancellationTokenSource to control cancellation.
