async_combinators

This module contains combinators for futures. The when_* functions allow you to turn multiple futures into a single future which is ready when all, any, some, or each of the given futures are ready. The wait_* combinators are equivalent to the when_* functions except that they do not return a future.

The split_future combinator takes a single future of a container (e.g. tuple) and turns it into a container of futures.

See lcos_local, synchronization, and async for other synchronization facilities.

See the API reference of this module for more details.
