Message399982
The anext_awaitable object returned by anext(..., default) does not support .send()/.throw(). It only supports __next__().
So we can pass messages from the suspending coroutine to the event loop but not from the event loop to the suspending coroutine.
trio and curio rely on both directions working. (I don't know about asyncio.)
For example, this trio code fails:
import trio
async def produce():
for v in range(3):
await trio.sleep(1)
yield v
async def consume():
p = produce()
while True:
print(await anext(p, 'finished'))
trio.run(consume)
raising AttributeError: 'anext_awaitable' object has no attribute 'send'.
I realise that any awaitable that wants to await another awaitable must return not an iterator from __await__() but something that implements the full PEP-342 generator protocol. Should PEP-492 section on __await__()[1] say something about that?
