t.i.task : module documentation

Scheduling utility methods and classes.

Author Jp Calderone

Class	LoopingCall	Call a function repeatedly.
Class	SchedulerStopped	The operation could not complete because the scheduler was stopped in progress or was already stopped.
Class	Cooperator	Cooperative task scheduler.
Function	coiterate	Cooperatively iterate over the given iterator, dividing runtime between it and all other iterators which have been passed to this function and not yet exhausted.
Class	Clock	Provide a deterministic, easily-controlled implementation of `IReactorTime.callLater`. This is commonly useful for writing deterministic unit tests for code which schedules events using this API.
Function	deferLater	Call the given function after a certain period of time has passed.
Class	_Timer	Undocumented
Function	_defaultScheduler	Undocumented

Undocumented

def coiterate(iterator): (source)

Cooperatively iterate over the given iterator, dividing runtime between it and all other iterators which have been passed to this function and not yet exhausted.

def deferLater(clock, delay, callable, *args, **kw): (source)

Call the given function after a certain period of time has passed.

Parameters	clock	The object which will be used to schedule the delayed call. (type: `IReactorTime` provider )
	delay	The number of seconds to wait before calling the function. (type: `float` or `int` )
	callable	The object to call after the delay.
	*args	The positional arguments to pass to `callable`.
	**kw	The keyword arguments to pass to `callable`.
Returns	A deferred that fires with the result of the callable when the specified time has elapsed. (type: `defer.Deferred` )
