112
113=head2 STATIC METHODS
114
115Static methods are actually functions that operate on the current process only.
116
117=over 4
118
119=item async { ... } [@args...]
120
121Create a new asynchronous process and return it's process object
122(usually unused). When the sub returns the new process is automatically
123terminated.
124
125 # create a new coroutine that just prints its arguments
126 async {
127 print "@_\n";
128 } 1,2,3,4;
129
130The coderef you submit MUST NOT be a closure that refers to variables
131in an outer scope. This does NOT work. Pass arguments into it instead.

136 my $pid = new Coro @_;
137 $pid->ready;
138 $pid;
139}
140
141=item schedule
142
143Calls the scheduler. Please note that the current process will not be put
144into the ready queue, so calling this function usually means you will
145never be called again.
146
147=cut

154 Coro::State::transfer($prev, $current);
155}
156
157=item cede
158
159"Cede" to other processes. This function puts the current process into the
160ready queue and calls C<schedule>, which has the effect of giving up the
161current "timeslice" to other coroutines of the same or higher priority.

164
165sub cede {

171
172Terminates the current process.

174Future versions of this function will allow result arguments.

157=item schedule
158
159Calls the scheduler. Please note that the current process will not be put

233sub ready { 225=item $process->cancel
226
227Like C<terminate>, but terminates the specified process instead.

233 $manager->ready;

235
236=item $oldprio = $process->prio($newprio)
237
238Sets the priority of the process. Higher priority processes get run before
239lower priority processes. Priorities are smalled signed integer (currently
240-4 .. +3), that you can refer to using PRIO_xxx constants (use the import
241tag :prio to get then):
242
243 PRIO_MAX > PRIO_HIGH > PRIO_NORMAL > PRIO_LOW > PRIO_IDLE > PRIO_MIN
244 3 > 1 > 0 > -1 > -3 > -4
245
246 # set priority to HIGH
247 current->prio(PRIO_HIGH);
248
249The idle coroutine ($Coro::idle) always has a lower priority than any
250existing coroutine.
251
252Changing the priority of the current process will take effect immediately,
253but changing the priority of processes in the ready queue (but not
254running) will only take effect after the next schedule (of that
255process). This is a bug that will be fixed in some future version.

258
259sub prio {
260 my $old = $_[0]{prio};
261 $_[0]{prio} = $_[1] if @_ > 1;
262 $old;
263}
264
265=item $newprio = $process->nice($change)
266
267Similar to C<prio>, but subtract the given value from the priority (i.e.
268higher values mean lower priority, just as in unix).
269
270=cut
271
272sub nice {
273 $_[0]{prio} -= $_[1];
