class Async::Task
def wait
@raises [RuntimeError] If the task's fiber is the current fiber.
Conceptually speaking, waiting on a task should return a result, and if it throws an exception, this is certainly an exceptional case that should represent a failure in your program, not an expected outcome. In other words, you should not design your programs to expect exceptions from `#wait` as a normal flow control, and prefer to catch known exceptions within the task itself and return a result that captures the intention of the failure, e.g. a `TimeoutError` might simply return `nil` or `false` to indicate that the operation did not generate a valid result (as a timeout was an expected outcome of the internal operation in this case).
Retrieve the current result of the task. Will cause the caller to wait until result is available. If the task resulted in an unhandled error (derived from `StandardError`), this will be raised. If the task was stopped, this will return `nil`.
def wait raise "Cannot wait on own fiber!" if Fiber.current.equal?(@fiber) # `finish!` will set both of these to nil before signaling the condition: if @block || @fiber @finished ||= Condition.new @finished.wait end if @status == :failed raise @result else return @result end end
