- Synopsis
- Fork threads and wait for their result
- Description
This package provides functions to fork threads and wait for their termination. The result of a thread can also be retrieved, 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: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/threadmanager. 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.
