Description updated Couldn't anyone explain how the method will be used and why it will be necessary? As far as I read, it sounds that it's EM specific and EM should take care of it. ---------------------------------------- Feature #3944: Add Fiber#root? method https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/3944#change-58733 * Author: Mike Perham * Status: Feedback * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Koichi Sasada ---------------------------------------- Since the root fiber is treated differently than other Fibers (e.g. you can't yield from the root), code which can optionally use fibers for high-performance IO (in my case, the Mysql2 driver) needs `Fiber#root?` to know when it can use Fibers to execute a query versus using a standard blocking call. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
