Suspender
Suspender generates wrapper classes around normal java classes and exposes its methods as suspend functions
Consider an existing class that performs a long running process as part of its function -
/**
* An office
*/
class Office {
....
fun addEmployee(employee: Employee) {
//validate through some long running process
//add
employees.add(employee)
}
}
Suspender allows you to call the above function safely from your coroutine without blocking it
//This calls will block
office.addEmployee(employee)
//This is suspended call
office.asSuspendable().addEmployee(employee)
All you have to do is specify which all existing classes needs to have wrappers generated!
Simply annotate an interface with @Suspender and specify all the classes that needs to be wrapped.
@Suspender(classesToWrap = [
Office::class,
School::class
])
interface XXX
That's it!
Annotations
- @Suspender Annotate on any interface/class to specify the classes that needs to be wrapped. For each of the class X specified, a wrapper class X_SuspendWrapper will be generated along with an extension function X.asSuspendable()
