#async(*arguments, **options, &block) ⇒ Object

Deprecated.

With no replacement.

Start an asynchronous task within the specified reactor. The task will be executed until the first blocking call, at which point it will yield and and this method will return.

This is the main entry point for scheduling asynchronus tasks.

def async(*arguments, **options, &block)
	task = Task.new(Task.current? || self, **options, &block)
	
	# I want to take a moment to explain the logic of this.
	# When calling an async block, we deterministically execute it until the
	# first blocking operation. 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)
	
	# Console.logger.debug "Initial execution of task #{fiber} complete (#{result} -> #{fiber.alive?})..."
	return task
end

#block(blocker, timeout) ⇒ Object

Invoked when a fiber tries to perform a blocking operation which cannot continue. A corresponding call #unblock must be performed to allow this fiber to continue.
