| Summary : Run IO operations asynchronously and wait for their results
|
Description :
This package provides a higher-level interface over threads, in which an
\"Async a\" is a concurrent thread that will eventually deliver a value of
type \"a\". The package provides ways to create \"Async\" computations,
wait for their results, and cancel them.
Using Async is safer than using threads in two ways:
* When waiting for a thread to return a result, if the thread dies with an
exception then the caller must either re-throw the exception (\'wait\') or handle
it (\'waitCatch\'); the exception cannot be ignored.
* The API makes it possible to build a tree of threads that are automatically
killed when their parent dies (see \'withAsync\').
