Description

provides a sort of cooperative multitasking on a single thread
This package forms part of the Boost C++ Libraries collection.
.
Boost.Context is a foundational library that provides a sort of
cooperative multitasking on a single thread. By providing an abstraction
of the current execution state in the current thread, including the stack
(with local variables) and stack pointer, all registers and CPU flags, and
the instruction pointer, a fcontext_t instance represents a specific point
in the application's execution path. This is useful for building higher-
level abstractions, like coroutines, cooperative threads (userland
threads) or an equivalent to C# keyword yield in C++.
