Future::Phrasebook(3pm) on Linux
The text 596cdd84fa65, as Debian 8 (Jessie) shipped it.
coding examples for "Future" and "Future::Utils" This documentation-only module provides a phrasebook-like approach to giving examples on how to use Future and Future::Utils to structure Future-driven asynchronous or concurrent logic. As with any inter-dialect phrasebook it is structured into pairs of examples; each given first in a traditional call/return Perl style, and second in a style using Futures. In each case, the generic function or functions in the example are named in "ALL_CAPITALS()" to make them stand out. In the examples showing use of Futures, any function that is expected to return a "Future" instance is named with a leading "F_" prefix. Each example is also constructed so as to yield an overall future in a variable called "$f", which represents the entire operation.
