# LaunchPool
`LaunchPool` is a bounded-concurrency task pool: you submit lambdas with `launch`, and the pool runs them using a fixed number of worker coroutines.
## Constructor
```
LaunchPool(maxWorkers, maxQueueSize = Channel.UNLIMITED)
```
| Parameter | Description |
|-----------|-------------|
| `maxWorkers` | Maximum number of tasks that run in parallel. |
| `maxQueueSize` | Maximum number of tasks that may wait in the queue. When the queue is full, `launch` suspends the caller until space becomes available. Defaults to `Channel.UNLIMITED` (no bound). |
## Methods
### `launch(lambda): Deferred`
Schedules `lambda` for execution and returns a `Deferred` for its result.
- Suspends if the queue is full (`maxQueueSize` reached).
- Throws `IllegalStateException` if the pool is already closed or cancelled.
- Any exception thrown by `lambda` is captured in the returned `Deferred` and **does not escape the pool**.
```lyng
val pool = LaunchPool(4)
val d1 = pool.launch { computeSomething() }
val d2 = pool.launch { computeOther() }
pool.closeAndJoin()
println(d1.await())
println(d2.await())
```
### `closeAndJoin()`
Stops accepting new tasks and suspends until all queued and running tasks complete normally. After this call, any further `launch` throws `IllegalStateException`. Idempotent — safe to call multiple times.
### `cancel()`
Immediately closes the queue and cancels all worker coroutines. Queued but unstarted tasks are discarded. After this call, `launch` throws `IllegalStateException`. Idempotent.
### `cancelAndJoin()`
Like `cancel()`, but also suspends until all worker coroutines have stopped. Useful when you need to be sure no worker code is still running before proceeding. Idempotent.
## Exception handling
Exceptions from submitted lambdas are captured per-task in the returned `Deferred`. The pool itself continues running after a task failure:
```lyng
val pool = LaunchPool(2)
val good = pool.launch { 42 }
val bad = pool.launch { throw IllegalArgumentException("boom") }
pool.closeAndJoin()
assertEquals(42, good.await())
assertThrows(IllegalArgumentException) { bad.await() }
```
## Bounded queue / back-pressure
When `maxQueueSize` is set, the producer suspends if the queue fills up, providing automatic back-pressure:
```lyng
// 1 worker, queue of 2 — producer can be at most 2 tasks ahead of what's running
val pool = LaunchPool(1, 2)
val d1 = pool.launch { delay(10); "a" }
val d2 = pool.launch { delay(10); "b" }
val d3 = pool.launch { delay(10); "c" } // suspends until d1 is picked up by the worker
pool.closeAndJoin()
```
## Collecting all results
`launch` returns a `Deferred`, so you can collect results via `map`:
```lyng
val pool = LaunchPool(4)
val jobs = (1..10).map { n -> pool.launch { n * n } }
pool.closeAndJoin()
val results = jobs.map { (it as Deferred).await() }
// results == [1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100]
```
## Concurrency limit in practice
With `maxWorkers = 2`, at most 2 tasks run simultaneously regardless of how many are queued:
```lyng
val mu = Mutex()
var active = 0
var maxSeen = 0
val pool = LaunchPool(2)
(1..8).map {
pool.launch {
mu.withLock { active++; if (active > maxSeen) maxSeen = active }
delay(5)
mu.withLock { active-- }
}
}
pool.closeAndJoin()
assert(maxSeen <= 2)
```

## LaunchPool
When you need **bounded concurrency** — run at most *N* tasks at the same time without spawning a new coroutine per task — use [LaunchPool]:
```lyng
val pool = LaunchPool(4) // at most 4 tasks run in parallel
val jobs = (1..20).map { n ->
pool.launch { expensiveCompute(n) }
}
pool.closeAndJoin() // wait for all tasks to complete
val results = jobs.map { (it as Deferred).await() }
```
Exceptions thrown inside a submitted lambda are captured in the returned `Deferred` and do not crash the pool, so other tasks continue running normally.
See [LaunchPool] for the full API including bounded queues and cancellation.
