FutureConverters

This object contains methods that convert between Scala scala.concurrent.Future and Java java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage.

The explicit conversion methods defined here are intended to be used in Java code. For Scala code, it is recommended to use the extension methods defined in scala.jdk.FutureConverters.

Note that the bridge is implemented at the read-only side of asynchronous handles, namely scala.concurrent.Future (instead of scala.concurrent.Promise) and java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage (instead of java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture). This is intentional, as the semantics of bridging the write-handles would be prone to race conditions; if both ends (CompletableFuture and Promise) are completed independently at the same time, they may contain different values afterwards. For this reason, toCompletableFuture is not supported on the created CompletionStages.

Value members

Concrete methods

def asJava[T](f: Future[T]): CompletionStage[T]

Returns a java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage that will be completed with the same value or exception as the given Scala scala.concurrent.Future when that completes.

Returns a java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage that will be completed with the same value or exception as the given Scala scala.concurrent.Future when that completes. Since the Future is a read-only representation, this CompletionStage does not support the toCompletableFuture method.

The semantics of Scala Future demand that all callbacks are invoked asynchronously by default, therefore the returned CompletionStage routes all calls to synchronous transformations to their asynchronous counterparts, i.e., thenRun will internally call thenRunAsync.

Value parameters:
f

The Scala Future which may eventually supply the completion for the returned CompletionStage

Returns:

a CompletionStage that runs all callbacks asynchronously and does not support the CompletableFuture interface

def asScala[T](cs: CompletionStage[T]): Future[T]

Returns a Scala scala.concurrent.Future that will be completed with the same value or exception as the given java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage when that completes.

Returns a Scala scala.concurrent.Future that will be completed with the same value or exception as the given java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage when that completes. Transformations of the returned Future are executed asynchronously as specified by the ExecutionContext that is given to the combinator methods.

Value parameters:
cs

The CompletionStage which may eventually supply the completion for the returned Scala Future

Returns:

a Scala Future that represents the CompletionStage's completion
