Oh, I see.

Thank you very much!

BTW another relevant question to my topic is

Starting a coroutine in a suspend function and _not_ waiting for it to finish

I want to implement a suspending function that starts a coroutine which runs a background job in a loop. Imagine a connect() function which, once the connection is establishes, needs to spawn a coroutine that receives data in the background continuously, in an infinite loop, until it is canceled. Here’s some pseudo code: suspend fun connect() { // connection is established here backgroundJob = launchInTheBackground { // This is the unclear part while (true) { v…
