|
|
23 | This module collection manages coroutines. Coroutines are similar to |
|
|
24 | threads but don't run in parallel. |
|
|
25 | |
|
|
26 | In this module, coroutines are defined as "callchain + lexical variables |
|
|
27 | + @_ + $_ + $@ + $^W + C stack), that is, a coroutine has it's own |
|
|
28 | callchain, it's own set of lexicals and it's own set of perl's most |
|
|
29 | important global variables. |

287 | Sets (or gets, if the argument is missing) the priority of the |

288 | process. Higher priority processes get run before lower priority |

289 | processes. Priorities are small signed integers (currently -4 .. +3), |

334 | destruction. very bad things might happen otherwise (usually segfaults). |

335 | |
|
|
336 | - this module is not thread-safe. You should only ever use this module |

|
337 | from the same thread (this requirement might be losened in the future |
