Method Detail

dispose

void dispose()

Cancel or dispose the underlying task or resource.

Implementations are required to make this method idempotent.

isDisposed

default boolean isDisposed()

Optionally return true when the resource or task is disposed.

Implementations are not required to track disposition and as such may never return true even when disposed. However, they MUST only return true when there's a guarantee the resource or task is disposed.

Returns:
