:alt: No Maintenance Intended
.. warning::
- The Trollius project is deprecated since the release 2.1.! Use asyncio on
- Python 3 instead.
-
-Trollius provides infrastructure for writing single-threaded concurrent
-code using coroutines, multiplexing I/O access over sockets and other
-resources, running network clients and servers, and other related primitives.
-Here is a more detailed list of the package contents:
-
-* a pluggable event loop with various system-specific implementations;
-
-* transport and protocol abstractions (similar to those in `Twisted
- <http://twistedmatrix.com/>`_);
-
-* concrete support for TCP, UDP, SSL, subprocess pipes, delayed calls, and
- others (some may be system-dependent);
-
-* a ``Future`` class that mimics the one in the ``concurrent.futures`` module,
- but adapted for use with the event loop;
-
-* coroutines and tasks based on generators (``yield``), to help write
- concurrent code in a sequential fashion;
-
-* cancellation support for ``Future``\s and coroutines;
-
-* synchronization primitives for use between coroutines in a single thread,
- mimicking those in the ``threading`` module;
-
-* an interface for passing work off to a threadpool, for times when you
- absolutely, positively have to use a library that makes blocking I/O calls.
-
-Trollius is a portage of the `asyncio project
-<https://github.com/python/asyncio>`_ (`PEP 3156
-<http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3156/>`_) on Python 2. Trollius works on
-Python 2.6-3.5. It has been tested on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and
-OpenIndiana.
