How can I make A future of future into one future object?

Question

Env: Akka 2.1, scala version 2.10.M6, JDK 1.7,u5

Now is my problem: I have:

future1 = Futures.future(new Callable>(){...         


        

Answer 1

You can create another task

Futures.future(new Runnable(){
     // wait for future1
     // wait for future2
     // do something with the results.
});

or merge the tasks

Futures.future(new Runnable(){
     // do the work future2 would have done.
     // wait for future1
     // do something with the results.
});
