ok, then there's one small problem. CriticalStuff() cant return value that i use for fallback. I have to use external var

hackerham: I don't follow your problem. What exactly is the problem you are trying to solve?

[hackerham]

var marker = AnswerContainer<StuffReturns>();
try { criticalStuff(marker); } 
catch (e: CancellationException) { criticalFallback(marker); }

[elizarov]

Yes. You can do it that way

[hackerham]

Is there a default wrapper that I can use ?

[hackerham]

like java.util.Optional but without null

[hackerham]

CriticalStuff() returns something, so I pass it wrapper where it will put the thing

ok, that's not related to Jobs anymore, thank you 🙂
