Coroutines are now in Clang trunk, libc++

Can't wait to see the libc++ coroutines to be declared as production ready. Now I am wondering whether they will be providing some channel implementation similar to the one in Golang in the future.

Interesting time for all we C++ fans.

Libc++ coroutines are production ready!

But seriously, the library implementation for coroutines is just a shallow wrapper around compiler builtins.

Therefore libc++ is probably bug free, but Clang certainly isn't.

EDIT: "probably bug free" == famous last words.

John Bandela had a great talk about that at CppCon 2016: "Channels - An alternative to callbacks and futures" [0]
