TS-2652: Providing a true cancel() in AsyncTimer
> atscppapi: Allow developers to cancel AsyncHttpFetch in specific and
> AsyncProviders in general
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TS-2652
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2652
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: TS API
> Reporter: Manjesh Nilange
> Assignee: Brian Geffon
> Fix For: 5.0.0
>
>
> Use case - if a plugin starts an async http fetch but wants to cancel it
> before completion (timeout or something), the options available today are
> 1) setting some state in the plugin and using this to ignore the callback.
> 2) delete receiver (most cases a transaction plugin).
> #1 is ugly and #2 is not possible always (there may be other things the
> plugin wants to do).
