[Swift-devel] RFF (request for feature)

Hi gang,

I find myself in the need for a queuing facility in swift with the
following operations:

createQ
submitQ(function)
triggerQ(function, #jobs in queue) - to signal empty queues, for instance
deleteQ

I would think that in addition to atomic functions and composite
functions, we will have the queue facility acting as an intermediary.

Is any of this possible/doable in a data-flow language ?

Thanks
Tibi
