Description

This package provides a set of interfaces for talking about asynchronous tasks, and a set of simple classes for running tasks under the protocol. It provides facilities for progress reporting, completion processing and error handling. I expect these classes to be used most often in conjunction with classes in com.virtuosotechnologies.lib.swing to provide progress reporting for background tasks.
