             Summary: 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
            Reporter: Manjesh Nilange


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).
