Explore C++17's groundbreaking coroutines in this comprehensive conference talk from CppNow. Dive into Stackless Resumable Functions, the proposed standardization for lightweight coroutines that offer unparalleled efficiency, scalability, and customizability. Learn how these coroutines can scale to billions of concurrent instances, seamlessly integrate with existing asynchronous OS APIs and libraries through zero-overhead adapters, and empower library designers to create innovative coroutine types. Examine practical examples of tasks, goroutines, and generators built on resumable functions, and delve into their implementation details. Discover the extensive customization options available to both library designers and users for extending coroutine functionality. Gain insights into how C++17 coroutines are poised to revolutionize concurrent programming, offering the most advanced coroutine capabilities of any programming language to date.
