Is there a better way to implement suspending while loop instead of this?

while (condition) {
   ...
   delay(1)
}

Hard to tell without knowing what the loop is for

[Alexander Vtyurin]

I have blocking function getFromQueue that in loop tries to get something from a concurrent queue until there is something. If there is nothing it tries again.

I've just figured out I can do a generator instead of getFromQueue.

Yup, then there is no need to call delay(....) or yield().

Thank you.

You can also use channel instead of queue

Yes a RENDEZVOUS Channel is somewhat analogous to your “blocking queue”

[Dico]

It would be more like an array channel

You can also use channel instead of queue

Great stuff.
