Coroutines in Kotlin

Coroutines in Kotlin

• 1.
  { Kotlin } Staticallytyped language for the JVM, Android and the browser. Developed by JetBrains
• 2.
  { Little aboutthe language } ● Null safety ● Expressive ● 100% java interoperability ------------------------------------------------- ● Lambdas ● ( map, filter, reduce ..) ● Higher-order functions ● Extensions ● Automatic type inference ● Inline functions ● …..
• 3.
  { Coroutines } ●NOT A THREAD !!! Is like ● Lightweight threads ● More like daemon threads ● Programs that allows to run multiple program cooperatively
• 4.
  Behind the scene ExecutorService ThreadPoolExecutor Executors Threadpools …. + Kotlin implementation of pools, CoroutineDispatcher and etc ● Write asynchronous code as it was synchronous ● Avoid from callback hell ● Run multiple async computations simultaneously(demo in example) ● Less memory usage (compared to Threads) { Coroutines }
• 5.
  { Coroutines VSThreads } Coroutine - ● It is stackless(doesn't have own stack) low memory usage ● Doesn't map on native thread ● Managed by user ● Cooperatively multitasking (no context switch)
• 6.
  ● Launch ● Async ●Future ● Deferred ● suspend ● await { Coroutines }
• 7.
  { Coroutines } 1start coroutine 2 var rawData = startSomeNetworkRequest.await() 3 var data = parseData(rawData).await() 4 diplayData(data)
• 8.
  Create 100 000coroutine which runs simultaneously val jobs = List(100_100) { async(CommonPool) { delay(1000) 1 } } jobs.sumBy{ it.await() } { Coroutines }.example
