Hello,

Read again my final corrected post..

About parallel programming and concurrency..

Look at the following concurrency abstractions of microsoft:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.threading.tasks.task.waitany?view=netframework-4.8

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.threading.tasks.task.waitall?view=netframework-4.8


I will soon implement waitany() and waitall() concurrency abstractions for Delphi and Freepascal, with the timeout in microseconds of course, and they will work with my efficient implementation of a Future, so you will be able to wait for one or many futures with waitany() and waitall().

And about task cancellation like in microsoft TPL, i think it is
not a good abstraction, because how do you know when you have to efficiently cancel a task or tasks ? so you are understanding that task cancellation is not a so efficient abstraction , so i will not implement it, because i think the waitany() and waitall() with the "timeout" in microseconds are good concurrency abstractions.



Thank you,
Amine Moulay Ramdane.
