type Future[T any] struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Future is a value that is set at most once. Once set it never changes, so waiters may keep using it without a lock.

func New[T any]() *Future[T]

New returns a Future that is not set yet.

func (f *Future[T]) Get() (value T, ready bool)

Get returns the value without waiting, or false if it is not set yet.

func (f *Future[T]) Set(value T) (stored bool)

Set stores value and wakes every waiter. It reports false, keeping the first value, if the Future is already set.

func (f *Future[T]) Wait(ctx context.Context) (T, error)

Wait blocks until the value is set or ctx is done.
