Cppcoro Alternatives

cppcoro reviews and mentions

• Struggle with C++ 20 Coroutines
  2 projects | /r/cpp_questions | 13 May 2023

  PS: Take a look at cppcoro; this might help as well, especially generator<>, if you're looking to generate numbers, and stuff;

• Does C++23 have a coroutine task promise type?
  1 project | /r/cpp_questions | 9 Mar 2023

  This is the only viable implementation.

• Stop Comparing Rust to Old C++

  Kind of sounds like whatever library you were using provided leaky abstractions. Something like cppcoro provides really good abstractions for coroutines, the user really doesn't need to understand why any of it works.

• Sane coroutine imitation with macros; copyable, serializable, and with reflection
  4 projects | /r/cpp | 22 Jan 2023

  Is there a usecase for copying/serializing such coroutines? If not, I would use the normal C++20 coroutines (cppcoro?).

• Is Tokio::sync::Mutex lock-free?
  1 project | /r/rust | 28 Nov 2022

  C++ has the popular CppCoro library. Async_mutex is its equivalent of Tokio::sync::Mutex, providing exclusive access to data shared between tasks.

• My experience with C++ 20 coroutines

• My thoughts and dreams about a standard user-space I/O scheduler
  4 projects | /r/cpp | 28 Apr 2022

  Because the whole application is running under a single thread there is no need for atomic operations in synchronization primitives(which most of the time requires seq_cst memory order and CMPXCHG which is an expensive instruction in CPU). for example what async_mutex would look like if it knows it's running in a single-threaded scheduler (a non-atomic state variable and waiters queue).

• [Discussion] What are some old C++ open source projects you wish were still active?
  10 projects | /r/cpp | 5 Apr 2022

  Maybe not old, but I wish cppcoro was still updated. It was such a nice start!

• A high-level coroutine explanation

  You can get generator<> from https://github.com/lewissbaker/cppcoro

• C++ Coroutines Do Not Spark Joy
  6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Nov 2021

  It is possible to compose them more easily than described in the article; Lewis Baker's cppcoro library for example provides a recursive_generator<> type[0] that allows this without using any macros. It's up to the library part of coroutines to make things easy, end users are not expected to write low-level coroutine code themselves.

  I wonder about the allocation elision. Return value optimization became mandatory, and some compilers can already elide calls to new/delete and malloc()/free() in normal code, so perhaps it will be possible to guarantee allocation elision in the future in the most used cases.
