I was talking to some other people, who all were working on different schedulers and such for coroutines. We decided to work out a common API to give coroutines, and common rules to passing data between them, etc. I am wondering now if there is already work on this, or some schedulers I'm not aware of that have any deployment and a good, simple design.
We also setup a group to discuss this and iron out our details and some common coroutines. [EMAIL PROTECTED] We came up with this basic rule set: 1) A coroutine can be any iterable 2) A coroutine yielding None is suspending to allow others to run 3) A coroutine yielding something else is yielding another coroutine and needs to stay suspended until that coroutine has a value to pass to the send() method of the coroutine. 4) In the above case, if the yielded coroutine raises an exception, it is passed to the waiting coroutine's throw() method. 5) A coroutine raising StopIteration(arg), where arg is its final result, expects arg to be passed to the send() method of any coroutine which is waiting for its completion. The idea is that we don't rely on defining any new types or functions and we keep it extremely simple. I'd like to consider it WSGI for coroutines. -- Read my blog!
