Hello everybody, I would want to know if someone knows what happens with the resources that a client it’s using in a http call if the coroutine is cancelled by any of the previous coroutines . I saw there’s a method in the response class:

public fun CoroutineScope.cancel(message: String, cause: Throwable? = null): Unit = cancel(CancellationException(message, cause))

But it just cancel de coroutine and i don’t know what happens with the connection, buffers, etc.
Thanks!

You can wrap it with a try/finally or use invokeOnCompletion method to free resources.
