Re: Where do you want to go tomorrow?

Stephen> Coroutines aren't threads Threads are not harder conceptually. It's just that you need more stuff around them like synchronization mechanisms, communication channels etc. etc. Of course, for thread preemption, you need some support from the underlying implementation, i.e. a timer mechanism and non-blocking I/O. From the viewpoint of Scheme, only the timer mechanism is visible. Everything else can, however, be fully implemented in vanilla Scheme. -- Cheers =8-} Chipsy Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
