asyncoro 3.0

This module provides framework for concurrent, asynchronous network programming with coroutines, asynchronous completions and message passing.

asyncoro is a Python framework for concurrent and/or distributed and/or network programming with asynchronous completions and coroutines. Asynchronous completions implemented in asyncoro are socket I/O operations (non-blocking sockets), database cursors, sleep timers and locking primitives. Programs developed with asyncoro have same logic and structure as Python programs with threads, except for a few syntactic changes. asyncoro supports socket I/O notification mechanisms epoll, kqueue, /dev/poll (and poll and select, where necessary), and Windows I/O Completion Ports (IOCP) for high performance and scalability, and SSL for security. asyncoro features include remote execution of coroutines, coroutines monitoring other coroutines, coroutines communicating with messages, message channels etc., for concurrent, distributed, fault-tolerant programming.

asyncoro.py is to be used with Python version 2.7+ and asyncoro3.py is to be used with Python version 3.1+. asyncoro has been tested with Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. asyncoro is implemented with standard modules in Python. Under Windows efficient polling notifier I/O Completion Ports is supported only if pywin32 (http://pywin32.sourceforge.net) is installed; otherwise, inefficient ‘select’ notifier is used.
