Project Description EasyAsync is a small C# coroutine library that takes the pain out of .NET asynchronous programming.
It allows you to easily transform a complex event driven program to a more natural and much simpler
cooperative multi tasking one Using the succinct C# 3.0 lambda syntax and iterators, the EasyAsync coroutine library allows you to easily build high performance asynchronous applications.
The library automatically handles all multi threading concerns for you!
There is built in support for Windows forms - which means no more frozen UI threads.
Also there is support for inter task communication - Monitors that can be waited & pulsed by tasks running on the
same thread :-)
Look at the samples for what all is possible with this library.
Here is an echo server written in 60 lines of code capable of handling hundreds of socket connections in a single thread!
