def interruptible(): Future[Nothing]
Makes a derivative Future which will be satisfied with the result of the parent.
Makes a derivative Future which will be satisfied with the result of the parent. However, if it's interrupted, it will detach from the parent Future, satisfy itself with the exception raised to it, and won't propagate the interruption back to the parent Future.
This is useful for when a Future is shared between many contexts, where it may not be useful to discard the underlying computation if just one context is no longer interested in the result. In particular, this is different from Future.masked in that it will prevent memory leaks if the parent Future will never be satisfied, because closures that are attached to this derivative Future will not be held onto by the killer Future.

def mask(pred: PartialFunction[Throwable, Boolean]): Future[Nothing]

Returns an identical Future except that it ignores interrupts which match a predicate.

This means that a Promise's interrupt handler will not execute on calls to Future.raise for inputs to pred that evaluate to true. Also, raise will not be forwarded to chained Futures.

For example:

val p = new Promise[Int]()
p.setInterruptHandler { case x => println(s"interrupt handler for ${x.getClass}") }
val f1: Future[Int] = p.mask {
  case _: IllegalArgumentException => true
}
f1.raise(new IllegalArgumentException("ignored!")) // nothing will be printed
f1.map(_ + 1).raise(new IllegalArgumentException("ignored!")) // nothing will be printed

val f2: Future[Int] = p.mask {
  case _: IllegalArgumentException => true
}
f2.raise(new Exception("fire!")) // will print "interrupt handler for class java.lang.Exception"

Returns an identical Future that ignores all interrupts.

p.setInterruptHandler { case _ => println("interrupt handler") }

val f: Future[Int] = p.masked
f.raise(new Exception("ignored!")) // nothing will be printed

def proxyTo[B >: Nothing](other: Promise[B]): Unit

Definition Classes

Note
using proxyTo will mask interrupts to this future, and it's the user's responsibility to set an interrupt handler on other to raise on f. In some cases, using com.twitter.util.Promise.become may be more appropriate.

com.twitter.util.Promise.become
def raise(interrupt: Throwable): Unit
Raise the given throwable as an interrupt.
Raise the given throwable as an interrupt. Interrupts are one-shot and latest-interrupt wins. That is, the last interrupt to have been raised is delivered exactly once to the Promise responsible for making progress on the future (multiple such promises may be involved in flatMap chains).
Raising an interrupt does not alter the externally observable state of the Future. They are used to signal to the producer of the future's value that the result is no longer desired (for whatever reason given in the passed Throwable). For example:
```
import com.twitter.util.Promise
val p = new Promise[Unit]()
p.setInterruptHandler { case _ => println("interrupt handler fired") }
p.poll // is `None`
p.raise(new Exception("raised!"))
p.poll // is still `None`
```
In the context of a Future created via composition (e.g. flatMap/onSuccess/transform), raise-ing on that Future will call raise on the head of the chain which created this Future. For example:
```
import com.twitter.util.Promise
val p = new Promise[Int]()
p.setInterruptHandler { case _ => println("interrupt handler fired") }
val f = p.map(_ + 1)

f.raise(new Exception("fire!"))
```
The call to f.raise will call p.raise and print "interrupt handler fired".
When the head of that chain of Futures is satisfied, the next Future in the chain created by composition will have raise called. For example:
```
import com.twitter.util.Promise
val p1, p2 = new Promise[Int]()
p1.setInterruptHandler { case _ => println("p1 interrupt handler") }
p2.setInterruptHandler { case _ => println("p2 interrupt handler") }
val f = p1.flatMap { _ => p2 }

f.raise(new Exception("fire!")) // will print "p1 interrupt handler"
p1.setValue(1) // will print "p2 interrupt handler"
```
