Coro Description

Coro is a large Perl module family that implements cooperative multitasking in Perl. Coro is a large Perl module family that implements cooperative multitasking in Perl. It supports filehandle and event abstraction and also implements continuations as well as the necessary directives to implement a slightly limited call/cc in Perl.Unlike the so-called "Perl threads/fork emulation", they provide a real shared address space (like real threads) without the associated race conditions and performance loss, while maintaining a very low memory overhead (2-3kb/coroutine). The package comes with examples and many supporting modules.SYNOPSIS use Coro; async { # some asynchronous thread of execution print "2n"; cede; # yield back to main print "4n"; }; print "1n"; cede; # yield to coroutine print "3n"; cede; # and again # use locking my $lock = new Coro::Semaphore; my $locked; $lock->down; $locked = 1; $lock->up; Requirements: · Perl
