yieldm was located in ::tcl::unsupported in beta releases of Changes in Tcl/Tk 8.6 . Later , yieldto was modified such that it became trivial to implement yieldm in terms of it. Thereafter , ::tcl::unsupported::yieldm was removed .
yieldm is like yield, except that the next time the the associated coroutine context command is executed , it behaves like a procedure whose argument specification is the single special value , args . I.e. the coroutine context accepts an arbitrary number of arguments , and the return value of yieldm is a list of those arguments . yieldm is no-longer a built-in command , but can be implemented like this:
proc yieldm value {
yieldto return -level 0 $value
}In this implementation , any command that simply returns $value could be used instead of return:
proc yieldm value {
yieldto lindex $value
}AMG: Is any progress being made towards officially adopting this command or a variation thereof?
