it seems to have been something in ktor-client-okHttp taking its time to shut down which holds back the main function from closing

[bdawg.io]

It’s just OkHTTP itself. Whenever you use its async mechanism, it doesn’t close down immediately

OkHttp default thread pool creates threads and caches them for 60 seconds. You can change to daemon threads

@gildor how do i configure that in the ktor-http client ? any pointers ?

#squarelibraries might be able to help

[gildor]

@Nikky this is OkHttp API, so just set custom dispatcher using .dispather() method of OkHttpiebt.Builder

[gildor]

You can configure it using OkHttpConfig API of ktor client
