|
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. |

|
|
272 | Sets (or gets, if the argument is missing) the priority of the |
|
|
273 | process. Higher priority processes get run before lower priority |
|
|
274 | processes. Priorities are small signed integers (currently -4 .. +3), |
|
|
275 | that you can refer to using PRIO_xxx constants (use the import tag :prio |
|
|
276 | to get then): |

284 | The idle coroutine ($Coro::idle) always has a lower priority than any |

285 | existing coroutine. |
|
|
286 | |
|
|
287 | Changing the priority of the current process will take effect immediately, |
|
|
288 | but changing the priority of processes in the ready queue (but not |
|
|
289 | running) will only take effect after the next schedule (of that |
|
|
290 | process). This is a bug that will be fixed in some future version. |

332 | - you must make very sure that no coro is still active on global |

|
333 | destruction. very bad things might happen otherwise (usually segfaults). |
|
|
334 | |
|
|
335 | - this module is not thread-safe. You should only ever use this module |
|
|
336 | from the same thread (this requirement might be losened in the future |
|
|
337 | to allow per-thread schedulers, but Coro::State does not yet allow |

338 | this). |
