The idea behind this fork is to add a more fluent interface for handling promises. This is inspired by the amazing underscorem.org.
Current usage is demonstarted in WhenTests.m: No recommendation for production use of When.m as the work is still in progress.
// Initital When
[When block:^(Deferred *dfd) {
doDelayed(2, ^{
[dfd resolve:@"First"];
});
}]
// first callback
.then(^(id resolve){
return @"first callback is done";
},^id(id error){
return nil;
})
// 2nd callback
.then(^(id resolve){
return [Deferred deferredWithBlock:^(Deferred *dfd) {
doDelayed(3, ^{
[dfd resolve:@"second callback is done"];
});
}];
},^id(id error){
return nil;
