public class NativeFuture
An instance of a NativeFuture represents the return value of an external call which is taking place in a different OS thread. NativeFutures are used to implement the nativeLongRunningXxx calls in the System class. A NativeFuture is also returned from the nativeFutureCall:with: method on the System class. If NativeFutures are used directly rather than through the nativeLongRunningXxx calls in the System class, then it should be noted that a NativeFuture has a backing resource, which is released the first time the value is extracted. Thus, it is important to eventually call one of the xxxValue methods.
