I have a Resource api question: I have a function that gets called to start a udp receiver and send received data to a listener, and normally i would think to do something similar to:

override fun start(port) {
    scope.launch {
        flow {
            resourceScope {
                val socket = closeable { DatagramSocket(port) }

                emit(socket.receive())
            }
        }.collect(::listener)
    }
}

but I want to be able to catch the initial socket exceptions from creating DatagramSocket inside start while still launching the receiving on a coroutine. can I do this and still use the resource api? i don't control the interface with start or the caller
