Hi Eliot,<br>
<br>
I've seen that you are consistently maintaining the MT version of the Cog, so I wonder what is his status.<br>
Is it usable?<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I have a very simple test case, a REPL loop that runs in parallel with the UI. This works. I had a more complex case that I have not maintained, a concurrent callout to the Mac file chooser dialog. The dialog uses (asynchronous, concurrent) callbacks to ask the client about valid file names. This nearly worked but I haven't had time to get back to it. (Another unmaintained test case is a concurrent interface to ODBC).</div>
<div><br></div><div>I think the scheme should work well but it requires work. I think the work is worth it, but I need to find the time, and I need a collaborator.</div><div><br></div><div>Esteban, I think this would be relevant for your Mac UI work, and would revolutionize the Squeak/Pharo FFI. But it is not an easy thing to develop (concurrency is never easy to deal with).</div>
</div>-- <br>best,<div>Eliot</div>
