[Stackless] Question about atomic

[Tom Locke]

Hello again

A question about the semantics of stackless.atomic()

If, in a function, I do

a = stackless.atomic()

Then there will be no autosheduling until the object is destoryed, i.e.

- at the end of the function
- if I overwrite the value of 'a' or 'del a'

Right?

What about explicit scheduling points?

If I do a channel send/receive while the atomic is in effect, is that
ok? Will the sceduler de-schedule me as normal? From my experiments it
seems the answer is yes.

What about when I am re-sheduled? Is the atomic status back in effect?

Cheers

Tom.
