Is there any way to launch onto different coroutinescopes in

Question

Is there any way to launch onto different coroutinescopes inside a for loop so that every iteration of the for loop still doesn t block each other

for example ```for function in listOfSuspendingFunctions launch function call ```

I don t want each instance of `function call ` to block

Casey Brooks · Answer

` async ` is the builder you d want to use instead of ` launch `

WukongRework.exe · Answer

oh ok I will try that

What s wrong with your initial example though That looks fine

WukongRework.exe · Answer

that s what I thought but it is still blocking even though it didn t block in my testing

Dominaezzz · Answer

Interesting By block you mean suspend right

WukongRework.exe · Answer

yes

well i figured it out i just added a globalScope launch inside the function being called instead of wrapping the function call inside a launch and it just works

idk y

You shouldn t really use GlobalScope though

Casey Brooks · Answer

Launching into an unrelated scope will break structured concurrency and in general is not a recommended practice It s probably some issue with the combnation of where you `launch` where you have inner `coroutineScope ` blocks and maybe the initial scope you re starting from Can you paste the whole snippet from your code here and not just an example

sorry for not getting back to you guys yes unfortunately I understand launching into globalScope isn t the best practice but this code was for my robotics team and we needed a solution quick for a virtual competition we work with android so that s why we use kotlin I am not able to paste the whole snippet as not only is it multiple files within our code base it would also require some knowledge about the given SDK and API already set up and I don t believe you guys would want to spend time trying to understand any of that for a simple question

So I think I will just stick with this solution as of right now but will continue trying other possible solutions and ask more questions if needed thanks for all your input and help
