Module Async_condition

module Async_condition: sig .. end

Async.Condition is async's implementation of the standard notion of a "condition" variable, and is analogous to OCaml's Condition module. The main guarantee that a condition variable provides is that a call to signal (or broadcast) after a call to wait will be seen by the waiter.

Unlike the use of condition variables in ordinary threaded programs, async condition variables do not require a mutex, since async programs are cooperatively threaded.
