Will async.parallel still call the final callback after all tasks are done if any of them gets error?

node-async, node.js

Solution

The `async.parallel` executes all functions in parallel. If any of the functions pass an error to its callback (callback first parameter is not null), the main callback is immediately called with the value of the error. All functions will be executed though.

With the following code your execution will be as follows `1, 3, 2, 2.1`:

var async = require('async');
async.parallel([
  function(cb) {
    console.info('1')
    cb(true);
  },
  function(cb) {
    console.info('2')
    cb(null, true);
  },
  function(cb) {
    console.info('2.1')
    cb(null, true);
  }], 
  function(error, results) {
    console.info('3')
  }
);

Problem

``` var async = require('async'); async.parallel([ function(cb) { cb(true); }, function(cb) { cb(null, true); }], function(error, results) { } ); ``` In the code, if the first task runs cb(true) before the second tasks, will the second tasks still run? and If so, after it is done, will the main callback still be called?
