does Async.runSync use fibers? #3

Open yanndebelgique opened 9 years ago

When you say stops execution is it blocking until you call done()?

Yes it blocks the execution of that fiber until you call done

yanndebelgique commented 9 years ago

Ok but it still allows the event loop to keep executing instructions on the stack?

yanndebelgique commented 9 years ago

Basically my question is if using runSync blocks the event loop because I've heard this is bad thing to do.

No no. It doesn't block the event loop. On 2015 පෙබ 12, බ්‍රහස් at ප.ව. 4.56 Yann Buydens notifications@github.com wrote:
