Hello! I'm delighted to announce the release of Fibers 1.0.0.
Fibers is a lightweight concurrency facility for Guile that supports non-blocking input and output, millions of concurrent threads, and Concurrent ML-inspired communication primitives. For more information, see the web version of the manual at: https://github.com/wingo/fibers/wiki/Manual The manual is also available in PDF and Info formats in the tarball. The 1.0.0 tarball can be found here: https://wingolog.org/pub/fibers/fibers-1.0.0.tar.gz Its SHA256 sum is: a051913e252f872c969d71939310cee10844157a317db93ebcaf3df8c479536e fibers-1.0.0.tar.gz Fibers 1.0.0 requires the newly released Guile 2.1.7. This release finally improves the exception handling situation, so that that fibers that have uncaught exceptions print nice errors instead of killing the system. It also fixes a bug in channels, adds a condition variable implementation, adds a standalone web server implementation that scales with the number of cores available to it, implements many performance improvements, lowers the overhead of preemption, and improves documentation. Happy hacking, Andy
