Enumerations

enum  lely::util::FiberFlag {
  lely::util::FiberFlag::SAVE_MASK = FIBER_SAVE_MASK, lely::util::FiberFlag::SAVE_FENV = FIBER_SAVE_FENV, lely::util::FiberFlag::SAVE_ERROR = FIBER_SAVE_ERROR, lely::util::FiberFlag::SAVE_ALL = FIBER_SAVE_ALL,
  lely::util::FiberFlag::GUARD_STACK = FIBER_GUARD_STACK
}
 Specifies which properties of the calling environment are saved or restored by a fiber when it is suspended or resumed and how its stack is allocated.
 

Detailed Description

This header file is part of the utilities library; it contains the C++ interface for the fiber implementation.

The design of the C++ interface is based on the fiber class in Boost.Context. It is a wrapper around #fiber_t* which tries to prevent accidentally resuming a running or terminated fiber. The API is designed to be a building block for higher level constructs. For example, a call/cc operator similar to the one in Scheme can be implemented as:

template <class F>
inline Fiber
callcc(F&& f) {
return Fiber(::std::forward<F>(f)).resume();
}
