Summary : Run IO operations asynchronously and wait for their results
URL : https://hackage.haskell.org/package/async
License : BSD
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').
