<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>After a few years of scouring the Internet for example code
and viewing the very sparse documentation on the subject, I have been able to
successfully utilize almost all aspects of the C API with regard to stackless
python.&nbsp; I feel pretty comfortable with most all functions declared in
stackless_api.h.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>However, there is one thing I cannot figure out and cannot
find an example for anywhere:&nbsp; running a tasklet with the C API that
returns a value.&nbsp; Take, for example, this python code from one of the
stackless python examples online (<a
href="http://stacklessexamples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/examples/producerConsumerTextmode.py">http://stacklessexamples.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/examples/producerConsumerTextmode.py</a>):<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>-----------<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>def launch_p
(ind,sleeptime):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; # Launches and
initializes the producers lists<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; producers.append(int(ind))<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; p_counter.append(0)<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; producers[int(ind)] = stackless.tasklet(producer)(ind,sleeptime)<br>
------------<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>The last line is the one that I have no idea how to
recreate.&nbsp; Certainly, creating a tasklet, setting it up, and running it is
trivial; however, I cannot for the life of me figure out how you would get a
return value with&nbsp;the C API.&nbsp;&nbsp; My initial thought was perhaps
the results are sent back on a 'channel'; however, I do not see any
documentation that supports that, nor can I find any examples of it.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>Anyway, can anyone help me out with this?&nbsp; It's keeping
me awake at night!&nbsp;&nbsp; If not, can someone give me a contact address
for one of the developers of stackless that wrote the C API for it?<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>ps.&nbsp; By the way, does anyone know why this link
indicates that it's the C/C++ API for stackless 2.6.4 but has none of the
stackless functions within it?&nbsp; -&gt; <a
