CompletableDeferred

interface CompletableDeferred<T> : Deferred<T> (source)

A Deferred that can be completed via public functions complete or cancel.

Note that the complete function returns false when this deferred value is already complete or completing, while cancel returns true as long as the deferred is still cancelling and the corresponding exception is incorporated into the final completion exception.

An instance of completable deferred can be created by CompletableDeferred() function in active state.

All functions on this interface are thread-safe and can be safely invoked from concurrent coroutines without external synchronization.
