Hi Kristján,
I wasn't aware of stackless.atomic(). It's not yet documented.
Obviously there are a few pending issues before we can release 2.7.6-slp.
- add set_args()
- add run_remove()
- update the documentation
- update the changelog
Anything else? We should really try to create a consistent and well
documented release.
Cheers
Anselm

But it is not really a problem, because:

t.setup(*args, **kw):
t.remove()
A more annoying problem that isn't solvable, and that is that there is no
run_remove(), i.e. no way switch to a tasklet and remove the caller from the
run queue.
This is something that is needed in stacklesslib.async:
def call_async(callable, args=(), kwargs={}):
awaiter = Awaiter(stackless.getcurrent())
callee = stackless.tasklet(async_call_helper)
future = futures.Future()
with atomic():
callee(future, awaiter, callable, args, kwargs)
try:
# here, a run(remove=True) or a switch() primitive would be useful
callee.run()
finally:
# need this here, in case caller gets awoken by other means, e.g.
exception
awaiter.caller_continued = True
return future
def async_call_helper(future, awaiter, callable, args, kwargs):
# remove the caller from the runnables queue. There is a window here
where other tasklets
# might run, we need perhaps a primitive to perform this task
try:
awaiter.caller.remove()

Subject: [Stackless] Proposal: new tasklet method set_args(*args, **kw)
that combines setup() and remove()
Hi,
I propose to add a new method set_args(*args, **kw) to class tasklet, that
combines
stackless.setup(*args, **kw)
stackless.remove()
Rationale: it is currently not possible to create an alive tasklet without
scheduling it (except via unpickling or direct __setstate__).
With the new bind_thread() method, one can think of use cases where one
thread creates tasklets and another thread executes them. No need to insert
these tasklets into the current run queue. It could even cause races.
With set_args() in place, setup() would become a simple shortcut for
set_args() followed by insert().
Does this proposal make sense?
regards
Anselm
