The error is weird.  It seems to be trying to pickle the "function" type.  It 
shouldn't try doing that.
Now, I know that pickling channels with tasklets on them works.  This is what 
stackless does.
I tried saving your code into a module and just running it from the command 
line.
I wonder if there is some copy_reg magic that is interfering with the code.  
How are you running it?  Is this when running the code as a module, or when 
typing it in from the console?
Are you trying this in a stand-alone environment or in some application 
framework?

Finally, can I see the full traceback for the pickle exception.  If you are 
using pickle (and not cPickle) a traceback can help us find out why it is 
failing.

Hi Kristjan,

the version i am using is: python 2.7.5 Stackless 3.1b3 (from binary).

I think the stackless mailsystem was a little off, i tried with pickle.dumps 
(see mail history below), with the error: pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle 
<type 'function'>: it's not found as __builtin__.function.

"stackless.run() returns when there are no runnable tasklets ...", ok, clear, 
thanks.

Cheers, Lars

I am reasonably familiar with pickle (e.g. i know you cant pickle most 
functions), but this is pretty stackless specific: why can i pickle an empty 
channel, but not a sending/receiving channel?

Hi Lars,

you are observing well known deficiencies of the pickle/cPickle implementation 
of Python. Perhaps sPickle (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/sPickle) can pickle the 
channels.

actually both give an error. The only thing different is the error message.
with pickle the code would be:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
import stackless, pickle

class Test(object):
     def __init__(self):
         self.channel = stackless.channel()

     def run(self):
         stackless.tasklet(self.sender)()
         stackless.tasklet(self.receiver)()
         stackless.run()

     def sender(self):
         counter = 0
         while counter < 10:
             self.channel.send(counter)
             counter += 1

     def receiver(self):
         counter = 0
         while counter < 12:
             counter = self.channel.receive()
             print counter,
         print "done"

if __name__ == "__main__":

     t = Test()
     t.run()
     t.channel = None
     s = pickle.dumps(t) #OK

     t = Test()
     t.run()
     s = pickle.dumps(t) #ERROR
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
and the error:

pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle <type 'function'>: it's not found as
__builtin__.function

otherwise the error behavior is the same as decribed above.

Cheers, Lars

(as far as i have read and tested a bit, deepcopy allows more to be copied
then pickle, but cPickle is faster, so i have my own deepcopy:

def deepcopy(obj):
     try:
         return cPickle.loads(cPickle.dumps(obj, -1))
     except PicklingError:
         return copy.deepcopy(obj)
)

As far as I know using copy or deepcopy has never been supported for
tasklets and therefore channels.

Pickling however, is another matter.

Cheers,
Richard.
