How do I get hold of exceptions thrown in a Scala Future?

Question

I\'ve been working up my answer to Is there a standard Scala function for running a block with a timeout?, and have run into a problem if an exception is thrown in a Future.

Answer 1

Or use Future.liftTryTry, turns it from Future[Object] to Future[Try[Object]], and you can match on the Try[Object] and check for an exception case Throw(e) and log / exit gracefully
