pub struct ChildTask<T> { /* private fields */ }

Methods from Deref<Target = JoinHandle<T>>

Abort the task associated with the handle.

Awaiting a cancelled task might complete as usual if the task was already completed at the time it was cancelled, but most likely it will fail with a cancelled JoinError.

use tokio::time;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
   let mut handles = Vec::new();

   handles.push(tokio::spawn(async {
      time::sleep(time::Duration::from_secs(10)).await;
      true
   }));

   handles.push(tokio::spawn(async {
      time::sleep(time::Duration::from_secs(10)).await;
      false
   }));

   for handle in &handles {
       handle.abort();
   }

   for handle in handles {
       assert!(handle.await.unwrap_err().is_cancelled());
   }
}

Checks if the task associated with this JoinHandle has finished.

Please note that this method can return false even if abort has been called on the task. This is because the cancellation process may take some time, and this method does not return true until it has completed.

use tokio::time;

let handle1 = tokio::spawn(async {
    // do some stuff here
});
let handle2 = tokio::spawn(async {
    // do some other stuff here
    time::sleep(time::Duration::from_secs(10)).await;
});
// Wait for the task to finish
handle2.abort();
time::sleep(time::Duration::from_secs(1)).await;
assert!(handle1.is_finished());
assert!(handle2.is_finished());
