In Clojure 1.4, I came across the following this week: user=> (def f (future (Thread/sleep 20000))) #'user/f user=> f #<core$future_call$reify__6110@27adc5f7: :pending> user=> (future-cancel f) true user=> f CancellationException java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerGet (FutureTask.java:220)
That is, when printing a future, the cancellation state isn't checked for resulting in an exception when Future.get() is called. It's more annoying when the future is part of a larger data structure.
