Hi Folks:
I understand that stackless is not high on the pypy team priority list but here
goes....
My talk "Prototyping Go's Select for Stackles Python in Stackless.py" was
accepted. I have never been to Europe. To date, I have been able to implement
the Go Select like capability in a number of ways. Most recently I emulated the
Plan9 approach which is pretty straight forward. I need to add the code for
channel preferences and the channel callback so it is on par with the old
stackless.py
Questions:
Where should I put the new code?
Are there regression tests for stackless.py
Right now, I am taking Stephan Diehl and Carl Bolz's good advice and using
stackless.py with greenlets.
However for completeness, I would like to run through the exercise of using the
translate tool chain. Right now, select is a function. I figure implementing
Select as a language feature would be a good way to familarise myself better
with the PyPy framework at a deeper level. However I am not sure where to
start. Where is the parser? Do I create new opt codes? Is this doable for a
newbie in a month?
Cheers,
Andrew
