Deferred Not Awaited (ARCH8029)

Key kotlin.async.deferred-not-awaited · Severity warning · Category async

Flags a Deferred assigned to a local that is never awaited in the function - the value is a handle, not the result.

Incorrect

val d = async { load() }
return d

Correct

val d = async { load() }
return d.await()

Fix

Call await() on the Deferred where the result is needed.
