We just need to provide two APIs: 1) Synchronized: `run`, `run_string`, that will wait until thread notify with setting `atomic variable` in true that it finished 2) Asynchronized (based on async): `run_async`, `run_string_async`, event_loop will wait on `atomic variable` reading it periodically
Whenever somebody says "we just need", the word "just" can hide a huge amount of work.
Oh dear Lord yes! As a consultant programmer, I am forever pointing out to clients that the answer to any question beginning "Can you just...?" is "No." It is never "just". Never. -- Rhodri James *-* Kynesim Ltd
