Am just getting my head round Twisted, threading, stackless, etc. etc. and would appreciate some high level advice. Suppose I have remote clients 1 and 2, connected via a websocket running in a page on their browsers. Here is the ideal goal: for cl in (1,2): guess[cl] = show(cl, choice("Pick a number:", range(1,11))) checkpoint() if guess[1] == guess[2]: show((1,2), display("You picked the same number!")) Ignoring the mechanics of show, choice and display, the point is that I want the show call to be asynchronous. Each client gets shown the choice. The code waits at checkpoint() for all the threads (or whatever) to rejoin. I would be interested in hearing answers even if they involve hairy things like rewriting the source code. I'd also be interested in less hairy answers which involve compromising a bit on the syntax. Continue reading...
