What about task.js's join?
https://github.com/mozilla/task.js/blob/master/examples/read.html#L41
I feel it's pretty much equivalent. Maybe slightly less verbose. I'd
write the same code with promises as:
Q.all(read("sleep.html"), read("read.html")).then(function(f1, f2){
out.innerHTML += "sleep.html: " + (f1.responseText.length) + "\n";
out.innerHTML += "read.html: " + (f2.responseText.length) + "\n";
});
Generators + promises = tasks ;-)
It took me several months to understand the value of tasks.js and then I
loved the idea (though I haven't used it because of the lack of
generators in platforms). The code you linked to leaves me somehow
uneasy, because it looks like sync code while it's async. Promises have
this advantage that they make clear what's sync and what's async. But
maybe I also need to step out of my comfort zone for this case...
What's the error forwarding/handling story for tasks?
David
