Use is.promise
to determine whether an R object is a promise. Use
as.promise
(an S3 generic method) to attempt to coerce an R object to a
promise, and is.promising
(another S3 generic method) to test whether
as.promise
is supported. This package includes support for converting
future::Future objects into promises.
is.promise(x)is.promising(x)
as.promise(x)
as.promise
returns a promise object, or throws an error if the
object cannot be converted.
is.promise
returns TRUE
if the given value is a promise object, and
FALSE
otherwise.
is.promising
returns TRUE
if the given value is a promise object or
if it can be converted to a promise object using as.promise
, and FALSE
otherwise.
An R object to test or coerce.
