PackageDescription | provides a sort of cooperative multitasking on a single thread
This package forms part of the Boost C++ Libraries collection.
.
Boost.Coroutine provides templates for generalized subroutines which
allow multiple entry points for suspending and resuming execution at
certain locations. It preserves the local state of execution and
allows re-entering subroutines more than once (useful if state must
be kept across function calls).
.
Coroutines can be viewed as a language-level construct providing a
special kind of control flow.
.
In contrast to threads, which are pre-emptive, coroutine switches are
cooperative (programmer controls when a switch will happen). The
kernel is not involved in the coroutine switches.
.
The implementation uses Boost.Context for context switching. |
