Cancel() does not cancel

[Martin-Hogge]

Hi !

First, thanks for this great library !
But I got an issue (or maybe a misunderstanding from myself) : I want to cancel a started AsyncJob in case we dismiss manually a loading dialog but when I call AsyncJob.cancel() it seems to have no effects. The callback onResult is still call with the result of doAsync() like nothing has happened.

What I was assuming is that the cancel() method would

• Avoid onResult to be call.
• Or call it with a flag like "CANCELLED"

But I don't have any way of telling if my AsyncJob has been cancelled.

Here is my code :

final AsyncJob<StatisticsTable> asyncJob = new AsyncJob<>();
asyncJob.setActionInBackground(new AsyncJob.AsyncAction<StatisticsTable>() {
	@Override
	public StatisticsTable doAsync() {
		return DashboardHelper.getInstance().getDashboard(
				StatisticsActivity.this,
				period,
				DashboardHelper.DASHBOARD_TYPE.values()[position]
		);
	}
});
asyncJob.setActionOnResult(new AsyncJob.AsyncResultAction<StatisticsTable>() {
	@Override
	public void onResult(StatisticsTable table) {
		dismissLoadingDialog();
		switchFragment(NAVIGATION_INDEX_DASHBOARD_ITEM, table);
	}
});
//Add a cancel listener on the loading dialog to cancel the async task once the user
//has manually dismiss the dialog.
dialog.setOnCancelListener(new DialogInterface.OnCancelListener() {
	@Override
	public void onCancel(DialogInterface dialogInterface) {
		asyncJob.cancel();
	}
});
asyncJob.start();

Thank's for help !
