Async/Await in Swift | Comparison vs Closures and Combine Framework

Hello guys, Welcome to another video!

Today we will implement one of the new features introduced for Swift 5.5: Asynchronous functions. This will be possible by using the async/await syntax, let's see how we can refactor a code fully of closures and complicated error handling.

Content:
0:00 - Intro
0:31 - State of the art
1:21 - Asynchronous code using closures
8:25 - A lot of boilerplate code!

10:11 - Async/Await in action
18:28 - Is it the end of Combine?
19:29 - Outro

...However, in some cases the system could sent it to another thread. <-- Correct. Use actors to prevent that. <-- this is a bit misleading. You don't use actors to prevent different threads, but to ensure only one thread accesses them at one time.

Thanks for going over the old way and the new async await way. Super helpful for me.

Great video! I really liked the use of three difference approaches to the problem. async/wait looks much clean than Combine.

Excellent video. What would be your guess as to when this feature will be available for production?

In my code i am displaying the message on tableView in ios swift uikit using actor, the table view delegate methods will call synchronously but the data from actor isolated property i am getting using Task method with in that tableview delegates synchronous execution, now the problem is the tableview delegates method synchronous execution is not waiting for the Task method to wait, can any one suggest on this please

This is a fantastic video, but I have one question. What would occur if I made an asynchronous request that took a while to receive a response, and in the meantime, I navigated back to the previous screen and wanted to cancel the unfinished request? How could I manage that situation?

[indomitabletr]

Should we cancel async await functions if we push another screen etc?

Did you ever use "debounce" or "semaphore" in your network calls. ??
