Getting coro into JDK8 is obviously not possible now, but the sooner we get started the more likely we can shoot for JDK9. That needs people with cycles. I have some, and I'm willing to help, but I do not know how the JSR process works (yes, I should learn) and I'm not enough of a VM-level expert to handle technical aspects of the coro JSR.
I may have some changes coming up that allow me to work more closely with the JSR and OpenJDK projects. - Charlie On Mon, Apr 2, 2012 at 10:53 AM, Lukas Stadler <lukas.stad...@jku.at> wrote: > Hi, > > I've last updated the coro patch beginning of December, and people have been > compiling and using it at least mid-February. > It is quite experimental, but it's complete enough to prove the usefulness > of coroutines on a JVM. > > One important step towards coroutines on Java is a JSR, I guess... > There's a mailing list hosted on one of our university servers for the > purpose of discussing coroutine/continuation JSR proposals, but there hasn't > been much traffic lately (partly because of lack of time and responsiveness > on my side, I fear...). > https://www.ssw.uni-linz.ac.at/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/co_jsr > > How does the Adopt OpenJDK program interact with JSRs?
