class Async::Reactor
An asynchronous, cooperatively scheduled event reactor.
def self.run(*arguments, **options, &block)
the block as an asynchronous task. Will block until the reactor finishes
- When invoked at the top level, will create and run a reactor, and invoke
asynchronously. Will return the task once it has been scheduled.
- When invoked within an existing reactor task, it will run the given block
The preferred method to invoke asynchronous behavior at the top level.

We don't *have* to do this - we could schedule # it for later execution, but it's useful to: # - Fail at the point of the method call where possible. # - Execute determinstically where possible. # - Avoid scheduler overhead if no blocking operation is performed. task.run(*arguments) # logger.debug "Initial execution of task #{fiber} complete (#{result} -> #{fiber.alive?})..." return task end
