Method depend

this_program depend(array(Future) futures)
local variant this_program depend(Future ... futures)
variant this_program depend()

Description

Add futures to the list of futures which the current object depends upon.

If called without arguments it will produce a new Future from a new Promise which is implictly added to the dependency list.

Parameter futures

The list of futures we want to add to the list we depend upon.

Returns

The new Promise.

Note

Can be called multiple times to add more.

Note

Once the promise has been materialised (when either on_success(), on_failure() or get() has been called on this object), it is not possible to call depend() anymore.
