# coroutines

[Diogo Ribeiro]

Hello guys, just wanna know your opinion on this launch. The this.cancel() will cancel the coroutine? Do I need to track the scope and finish it when the class is destroyed? Might main go here is launch and forget.

CoroutineScope(Default).launch {
            //do on background
            formDataDTO?.ad?.characteristics?.find { it.id == GENERATION }?.let { cha ->
                withContext(Main) {
                    //do on ui thread
                    characteristicBinder.bind(cha)
                }
            }
            this.cancel("has done his job")
        }

When a job is complete, cancelling it is pointless. Since you're not breaking structured concurrency here, there's zero need.

so, are there no memory leak or something? It will destroy the job automatically?

Exactly
