 * A handler for consuming the result of an asynchronous I/O operation.
 *
 * <p> The asynchronous channels defined in this package allow a completion
 * handler to be specified to consume the result of an asynchronous operation.
 * The {@link #completed completed} method is invoked when the I/O operation
 * completes successfully. The {@link #failed failed} method is invoked if the
 * I/O operations fails. The implementations of these methods should complete
 * in a timely manner so as to avoid keeping the invoking thread from dispatching
 * to other completion handlers.
 *
 * @param   <V>     The result type of the I/O operation
 * @param   <A>     The type of the object attached to the I/O operation
