# Module kotlinx-coroutines-core

Core primitives to work with coroutines.

Coroutine builder functions:

| **Name**      | **Result**    | **Scope**        | **Description**
| ------------- | ------------- | ---------------- | ---------------
| [launch]      | [Job]         | [CoroutineScope] | Launches coroutine that does not have any result 
| [async]       | [Deferred]    | [CoroutineScope] | Returns a single value with the future result
| [produce][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.produce]     | [ReceiveChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel] | [ProducerScope][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ProducerScope]  | Produces a stream of elements
| [actor][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.actor]     | [SendChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel] | [ActorScope][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ActorScope]  | Processes a stream of messages
| [runBlocking] | `T`           | [CoroutineScope] | Blocks the thread while the coroutine runs

Coroutine dispatchers implementing [CoroutineDispatcher]:
 
| **Name**                    | **Description**
| --------------------------- | ---------------
| [Dispatchers.Default]       | Confines coroutine execution to a shared pool of background threads
| [Dispatchers.Unconfined]    | Does not confine coroutine execution in any way
| [newSingleThreadContext]    | Create new single-threaded coroutine context
| [newFixedThreadPoolContext] | Creates new thread pool of a fixed size 
| [Executor.asCoroutineDispatcher][java.util.concurrent.Executor.asCoroutineDispatcher] | Extension to convert any executor

More context elements:

| **Name**                    | **Description**
| --------------------------- | ---------------
| [NonCancellable]            | A non-cancelable job that is always active
| [CoroutineExceptionHandler] | Handler for uncaught exception

Synchronization primitives for coroutines:

| **Name**   | **Suspending functions**                                    | **Description**
| ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------
| [Mutex][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex]          | [lock][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex.lock]                                          | Mutual exclusion 
| [Channel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.Channel]  | [send][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.send], [receive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.receive] | Communication channel (aka queue or exchanger)

Top-level suspending functions:

| **Name**                 | **Description**
| -------------------      | ---------------
| [delay]                  | Non-blocking sleep
| [yield]                  | Yields thread in single-threaded dispatchers
| [withContext]            | Switches to a different context
| [withTimeout]            | Set execution time-limit with exception on timeout 
| [withTimeoutOrNull]      | Set execution time-limit will null result on timeout
| [awaitAll]               | Awaits for successful completion of all given jobs or exceptional completion of any
| [joinAll]                | Joins on all given jobs

Cancellation support for user-defined suspending functions is available with [suspendCancellableCoroutine]
helper function. [NonCancellable] job object is provided to suppress cancellation with 
`withContext(NonCancellable) {...}` block of code.

[Select][kotlinx.coroutines.selects.select] expression waits for the result of multiple suspending functions simultaneously:

| **Receiver**     | **Suspending function**                       | **Select clause**                                | **Non-suspending version**
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------
| [Job]            | [join][Job.join]                              | [onJoin][Job.onJoin]                   | [isCompleted][Job.isCompleted]
| [Deferred]       | [await][Deferred.await]                       | [onAwait][Deferred.onAwait]                 | [isCompleted][Job.isCompleted]
| [SendChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel]    | [send][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.send]                      | [onSend][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.onSend]                   | [offer][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.offer]
| [ReceiveChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel] | [receive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.receive]             | [onReceive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.onReceive]             | [poll][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.poll]
| [ReceiveChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel] | [receiveOrNull][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.receiveOrNull] | [onReceiveOrNull][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.onReceiveOrNull] | [poll][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.poll]
| [Mutex][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex]          | [lock][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex.lock]                            | [onLock][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex.onLock]                   | [tryLock][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex.tryLock]
| none            | [delay]                                        | [onTimeout][kotlinx.coroutines.selects.SelectBuilder.onTimeout]                   | none

This module provides debugging facilities for coroutines (run JVM with `-ea` or `-Dkotlinx.coroutines.debug` options) 
and [newCoroutineContext] function to write user-defined coroutine builders that work with these
debugging facilities.

This module provides a special CoroutineContext type [TestCoroutineCoroutineContext][kotlinx.coroutines.test.TestCoroutineContext] that
allows the writer of code that contains Coroutines with delays and timeouts to write non-flaky unit-tests for that code allowing these tests to
terminate in near zero time. See the documentation for this class for more information.

# Package kotlinx.coroutines

# Package kotlinx.coroutines.selects

Select expression to perform multiple suspending operations simultaneously until one of them succeeds.

# Package kotlinx.coroutines.intrinsics

Low-level primitives for finer-grained control of coroutines.

# Package kotlinx.coroutines.timeunit

Optional time unit support for multiplatform projects.

# Package kotlinx.coroutines.test

Components to ease writing unit-tests for code that contains coroutines with delays and timeouts.
