This package provides functions to fork threads and
|
|
wait for their result, whether it's an exception or a
|
|
normal value.
|
|
|
|
Besides waiting for the termination of a single thread
|
|
this packages also provides functions to wait for a
|
|
group of threads to terminate.
|
|
|
|
This package is similar to the
|
|
@threadmanager@, @async@ and @spawn@ packages.
|
|
The advantages of this package are:
|
|
|
|
* Simpler API.
|
|
|
|
* More efficient in both space and time.
|
|
|
|
* No space-leak when forking a large number of threads.
|
|
|
|
* Correct handling of asynchronous exceptions.
|
|
|
|
* GHC specific functionality like @forkOn@ and @forkIOWithUnmask@.
