Information about the package, perl-Coro, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The perl-Coro package is designed for, The only real threads in perl.
Package Name:
perl-Coro
Summary:
The only real threads in perl
Description:
This module collection manages continuations in general, most often in the form of cooperative threads (also called coros, or simply "coro" in the documentation). They are similar to kernel threads but don't (in general) run in parallel at the same time even on SMP machines. The specific flavor of thread offered by this module also guarantees you that it will not switch between threads unless necessary, at easily-identified points in your program, so locking and parallel access are rarely an issue, making thread programming much safer and easier than using other thread models.
