[Stackless] stackless socket, curiouser and curiouser

[Paul Sijben]

I have the following code

def receive(self,mysocket=None):  
        stack=self
        print "Stack.receive"
        #raise Exception
        while 1:
            #try:
            print "while"
            if mysocket:
                res= mysocket.recvfrom(8192)
            else:
                res = self.s.recvfrom(8192)
            #PROFILEIN("recv")
            print "res=",res

the socket is a stacklesssocket.
when I call the thing I ought to get a result, or nothing as asyncore is
non-blocking. However I was not expecting to be dropped back up the
stack to the beginning of the Threading.thread (or the stackless thread
for that matter) that spawned the thing without as much as an exception!

I am getting the following output:
dispatcher loop
Stack.receive
while
dispatcher loop
Stack.receive
while
dispatcher loop
Stack.receive
while


etc.... Well that tells me that the recvfrom throws me back down the
function stack. I am baffled as to why.

Can someone /please/ explain this to me? (and of course what I should to
to get the expected result)
Paul
