Summary

Public functions
`java-static RemoteWorkContinuation`	`combine(continuations: (Mutable)List<RemoteWorkContinuation!>)` Combines multiple `RemoteWorkContinuation`s as prerequisites for a new RemoteWorkContinuation to allow for complex chaining.
`abstract ListenableFuture<Void!>`	`enqueue()` Enqueues the instance of `RemoteWorkContinuation` on the background thread.
`abstract RemoteWorkContinuation`	`then(work: (Mutable)List<OneTimeWorkRequest!>)` Adds new `OneTimeWorkRequest` items that depend on the successful completion of all previously added `OneTimeWorkRequest`s.
`RemoteWorkContinuation`	`then(work: OneTimeWorkRequest)` Adds new `OneTimeWorkRequest` items that depend on the successful completion of all previously added `OneTimeWorkRequest`s.

java-static fun combine(continuations: (Mutable)List<RemoteWorkContinuation!>): RemoteWorkContinuation

Combines multiple RemoteWorkContinuations as prerequisites for a new RemoteWorkContinuation to allow for complex chaining.

Parameters
`continuations: (Mutable)List<RemoteWorkContinuation!>`	One or more `RemoteWorkContinuation`s that are prerequisites for the return value

Returns
`RemoteWorkContinuation`	A `RemoteWorkContinuation` that allows further chaining

Added in 2.5.0

abstract fun enqueue(): ListenableFuture<Void!>

Enqueues the instance of RemoteWorkContinuation on the background thread.

Returns
`ListenableFuture<Void!>`	An `ListenableFuture` that can be used to determine when the enqueue has completed

Added in 2.5.0

abstract fun then(work: (Mutable)List<OneTimeWorkRequest!>): RemoteWorkContinuation

Adds new OneTimeWorkRequest items that depend on the successful completion of all previously added OneTimeWorkRequests.

Parameters
`work: (Mutable)List<OneTimeWorkRequest!>`	One or more `OneTimeWorkRequest` to add as dependents

Returns
`RemoteWorkContinuation`	A `RemoteWorkContinuation` that allows for further chaining of dependent `OneTimeWorkRequest`s

Added in 2.5.0

fun then(work: OneTimeWorkRequest): RemoteWorkContinuation

Adds new OneTimeWorkRequest items that depend on the successful completion of all previously added OneTimeWorkRequests.

Parameters
`work: OneTimeWorkRequest`	One or more `OneTimeWorkRequest`s to add as dependents

Returns
`RemoteWorkContinuation`	A `RemoteWorkContinuation` that allows for further chaining of dependent `OneTimeWorkRequest`s
