Ok, if you understand that, which you have never acknowledged until just now, then why do you insist on describing things incorrectly? Especially on the dev list, where we're discussing how it should work. Precision is important in this sort of discussion.
What did i describe incorrectly?
The way that task yielding works. Go back and re-read what I wrote. Especially the ball analogy. You admitted that your description, while it describes how multitasking works under a specific set of circumstances (which you only specified when you gave the example with the sequence of task numbers executed), does not accurately describe how multitasking works.
Well, the specific set of circumstances i optomise to result in greater speed, distributed over the tasks in such a way that it doesn't always work like you say it does. Why are you fighting this?
And this is what i call abuse, he tells me i have no clue, over and over and over, yet my code runs the way i want it to, and the way i describe it. And he'll tell me yet again, this is the way it is, it doesn't happen like that. He will attempt to keep pounding into my head that my code doesn't run like he says it should, no matter that he has never seen my applications here. No matter what i do, it isn't happening correctly, the Matt way, unless it's not like i want it.
I'm sorry you can't see beyond your own code, especially on the dev list, or when describing euphoria multitasking in general. I'm glad your code runs the way you want it to run. I can't comprehend how this is abuse. It's not about my way, but you're right that it wasn't correct. You've just admitted it above. Thank you for that, by the way.
Again, you didn't read what i wrote, you baiting sob. I said "No matter what i do, it isn't happening correctly, the Matt way, unless it's not like i want it" meaning you will call anything i do incorrect unless i do it your way, in which case it's not doing what i want.
I read every word of what you wrote. I'm not sure why you say this. It has nothing to do with "my" way. Please explain how "my way" is different from the way that euphoria actually behaves. Seriously, please explain why what I said is incorrect. If I'm wrong, I'd like to know it.
Read up where i gave you the sequence of 0,1,0,1,0,1 etc. Task1 yielded to task0 repeatedly, and that is what i wanted to happen. To you, this is "wrong" because the taskmanager is supposed to do that however it feels like, not how i want it to happen. If the code runs well, then according to you: i've screwed it up, it's not reality, you must deny it.
You must be the one who wrote the first news.ex, which i sped up 10 times by doing it my way.
I certainly didn't write news.ex. I wasn't even aware of it until there was a bug report filed about it crashing on linux (reported a week or two before you started working on it, IIRC), and then you enhanced the http library to be non-blocking. That was good work. However, that doesn't have any real bearing on the issue at hand here, which is how multitasking operates.

I do not think that is the issue at hand. I think the issue is that you cannot leave me alone. You must dispute me at every turn, and find ways to "prove" you are correct in the face of a different reality.
