Interface Context

@PublicApi
public interface Context

Task context. Can be used to provide status updates to clients.

Null is not allowed for any method arguments or return values.

Instances should internally protect any state from concurrent updates and so should require no external synchronisation if shared by multiple threads.

Since:

v3.13
