Futures - Reviews Needed (January 5, 2009)

Is the expected result of the review to choose a library (or none) or to create a third library that is a mixture of the two?
I have no expectations about the results. I'm interested to hear your views and those of the authors about how to proceed.

Are we reviewing both libraries at once? Sent from my iPhone On Dec 30, 2008, at 4:44 PM, "Tom Brinkman" <reportbase@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, sometime ago Peter Dimov asked if the effects of a set callback (ala Braddock ) is guaranteed to be observed by a task waiting on a future. The answer was not because the the callbacks are called after the futures are notified. I was wondering if we don't need to make two kind of callback on setting: one before notifying all the futures and the other after. In this way the promise setting could be completly decorated. Braddock, what do you think? Best, Vicente
